A practical overview of measuring blanket, packing, and plate thickness on offset presses, including non-destructive measurement considerations and probe selection.

An ultrasonic coating thickness gauge helps control the thickness of lacquer coatings on guitars with wood or graphite substrates without damaging the surface.

Ultrasonic measurement helps determine the remaining thickness of acrylic windows from one side, supporting wear monitoring and aircraft window refurbishment. An ultrasonic thickness gauge enables inspection without removing the window or requiring mechanical measurement from both sides. Measurements can be performed from one side of the surface when the probe is properly coupled to the material.

A practical overview of spray-on truck bedliner thickness, application considerations, and non-destructive measurement options for steel and aluminum truck beds.

Understand how PosiTector 200 uses ultrasonic echoes to measure coatings on non-metal substrates and when Max Thick Mode can help with rough or noisy surfaces.

A drywall coating thickness gauge helps evaluate coating uniformity and monitor the application process. This guide provides an overview of measuring dry film thickness on drywall using ultrasonic measurement, including how to interpret the results, handle rough surfaces, and measure areas containing joint compound.

A powder coating thickness gauge is a specialized instrument used to measure the thickness of powder coating on metal or non-metal surfaces, helping ensure coating quality and durability while minimizing material consumption. Measuring powder coating thickness at the right stage and using the appropriate measurement principle helps maintain coating quality, reduce rework, and optimize the finishing process.

A coating adhesion tester is an essential instrument for evaluating the quality of paints, varnishes, and protective coating systems. The coating must bond sufficiently well to the substrate or underlying coating layer to minimize peeling during use. Depending on the substrate material, coating system structure, test conditions, and evaluation objectives, operators can select from several adhesion test methods, including knife, tape, pull-off, and scratch tests.

A practical overview of ultrasonic coating thickness measurement for wood and wood products, including operating principles, measurement considerations, and process-control benefits.
