Elektrophysik MikroTest Magnetic Coating Thickness Gauge
The MikroTest has been the most widely used coating thickness gauge in the world over the last 40 years.
The MikroTest complies with the highest technical standards of all analogue magnetic coating thickness gauges.
This magnetic coating thickness gauge works on the magnetic attraction principle to measure all non-magnetic coatings on steel and galvanic nickel on steel.

The MikroTest is supplied in 11 different models to be suitable for every requested application.
The balanced measuring system ensures accurate readings at any angle: horizontal, vertical and overhead.
Also, the gauge allows measurements on curved surfaces. It is also able to provide you with precise measurements in tubes and on round parts due to the automatic operation.

The measurement of the coating thickness is based on magnetic attraction.
The attractive force is related to the distance between a permanent magnet and a steel substrate.
This distance represents the thickness of the coating under measure.
The magnet is lifted from the surface by means of a spring connected to the magnet arm.
The force needed to lift the magnet is directly related to the angle of rotation of the torsion spring. This measuring principle is also especially suited for electroplated nickel on copper, aluminium and other non-ferrous metals.
This measurement principle ensures fully automatic measurement where no power supply or calibration is required.

Features
  • Heavy-duty zinc die-cast housing
  • Magnet with long-lasting durability owing to the ElektroPhysik manufacturing process
  • Measuring range up to 20 mm
  • Can be used in all positions because of the weight compensation: horizontal, vertical, overhead
  • Measurement also possible on curved surfaces
  • Battery-free operation
Automatic drive mechanism of the measuring device by tension spring storage. Before measuring the scale wheel is turned as far as it will go and once started the built-in locking mechanism automatically carries out the process of measurement.

Foil Thickness Gauge, Model 497

To measure the thickness of foils, cards, paper, with and without coating.
Indispensable for scrubbing resistance tests on Leneta foils and for colour and opacity measurements on contrast cards.
The foil thickness measuring instrument is used in two fields:
It may be used to measure the thickness of sheet metal, plastic foil, carton, paper, and other laminates, in a direct manner.
The second and more important application from the point of view of coating material technology is the thickness measurement of coating materials on thin base material previously referred to. If the base material is non-metallic, magnetic or electric, thickness measurement techniques cannot be employed. For nondestructive testing this instrument is the only possible method of measuring differences.
A particularly important field of application for this instrument, for which it can be considered to be essential is the measurement of "Leneta" foils for the scrubbing resistance test in accordance with the German standard DIN 53 778 Part 2 and on black and white contrast cards for colour measurement and hiding power.
(Our instruments for this: Microprocessor Controlled Film Applicator and Drying Time Recorder, Model 509 MC; ERICHSEN-Washability and Scrub Resistance Tester, Model 494; Film Applicators, Models 288, 358, 360, 411, 421; Test Cards, Model 451.)
