A magnetic induction gauge measures galvanized coatings by sensing the zinc coating on steel and iron. The measurement tells how thick the protective coating is. This is done to ensure the prevention of rusting.  

Depending on model and location, delivery time is usually 2-4 weeks for standard models and 4-6 weeks for built- to-order ones. 

Follow the calibration steps form 3nh. Don’t touch the sample and drop the measurement light to eliminate external light.

Yes. Ultrasonic coating thickness gauges can pinpoint layers within a multi-coat system. Users can examine the separate thicknesses of a primer, base coat, and clear coat. In contrast, magnetic and eddy current gauges usually measure the overall thickness of the coating. 

A coating thickness gauge measures coating thickness. It measures coating thickness using three different principles: magnetic induction, eddy current, or ultrasonic. Depending on the coating type and the coating's substrate material, the appropriate principle is selected. For industrial and laboratory use, most of these units deliver accurate, non-invasive readings.

The LAB color space defines colors in a three-dimensional model: Lightness (L), red–green axis (a), and blue–yellow axis (b). It's a globally recognized standard supported by most modern color measuring devices. CIELAB is a standardized, device-independent system designed to map all visible colors that the human eye can perceive.

The LAB color space uses three values to define any color, each representing a specific dimension:

L (Lightness): Ranges from 0 to 100. It measures the brightness of the color, where 0 is pure black and 100 is pure white.
A (Red-Green Axis): Ranges from approximately -96 to +127. Positive values represent red tones, while negative values represent green tones.
B (Yellow-Blue Axis): Ranges from approximately -96 to +127. Positive values represent yellow tones, while negative values represent blue tones.

Look for dirty or fingerprinted glass along the optical path, recalibrate with standards, and check the set-up for outside light so that it is controlled. If the problems still exist, please reach out to the helpdesk or book a service with your professional service.

Once ignited, the gauge will select the correct substrate mode. The probe should be placed flat on the coated surface. The thickness of the coating will show on the screen. Measurements should be taken on different areas of the surface to ensure accuracy.

The best tool for measuring clear coat thickness is an ultrasonic coating thickness gauge. It is capable of measuring the thickness of each layer of paint on the vehicle, even the clear coat. This is common in automotive refinishing and inspection.
