galvanic layers
paint

etc. on steel

Measurement without current

Fully automatic measuring process

Measuring principle and description

The measurement of the coating thickness is based on a magnetic holding force measurement. The holding force depends on the distance between a permanent magnet and the steel base. This distance is given by the thickness of the non-magnetic layer to be measured.

The magnet is lifted by a measuring spring that exerts a counterforce to the magnetic holding force. The force applied or the angle of rotation of a torsion spring is a direct indicator of the layer thickness. The process is also well applicable for electroplated nickel coatings on copper, aluminium and other non-ferrous metals.
