WedgeSoft X coating thickness measurement software


Software for mech.-opt. coating thickness measurement – WedgeSoft X

The new WedgeSoft X software for mechanical-optical coating thickness measurement allows the determination of individual coatings from approx. 1 µm. It is implemented using a safety dongle and is activated by simply plugging it into the computer. The image intended for measurement is required as a verification variable for the camera scale factor of the recording medium (the software offers the corresponding input as an option) or alternatively a scale (e.g. a calibrated steel ruler) placed next to the drill hole.

Software features

  • Analysis by means of contrast lines: Contrast lines are positioned by cursor, i.e. at the transition contrast from substrate to coating, as well as at the upper edge of the coating. (Zoom, contrast and character colour adjustable)
  • Coating thickness measurement: The software automatically calculates the coating thickness after entering the drilling angle by triggering the evaluation process.
  • Evaluation of several layers: Several (up to 6) layers can be marked and measured simultaneously.
  • Documentation and logging: Date, name, sample designation, material, layers, statistics function, screenshot of the measurement, original image (for reuse), relevant measurement data (customisable)

Universally applicable

The new WedgeSoft X evaluation software is highly versatile. In addition to use in our PAINT BORER TCG "digital" test set, it can also be used to analyse drill holes from the proven ERICHSEN coating thickness gauges PAINT BORER 518 MC / USB or PAINTXPLORER 548. It is also possible to use our ERICHSEN WedgeSoft X evaluation software to analyse drill holes from your specific drills.
