Ultrasonic Film Thickness Gauge

An Ultrasonic Film Thickness Gauge emits, and measures the time of return for sound inside coatings over non-metallic substrates. A material calibration is used to provide results for Dry Film Coating Thickness in microns.

Test Systems

An Ultrasonic Film Thickness Gauge probe emits a high frequency sound pulse that travels into the coating via a coupling gel and reflects from ANY surface that is different in density.

The readings of a ultrasonic film thickness gauge are obtained by measuring the time taken for the sound pulse to propagate from the probe to the coating/substrate interface and back.
