Layer thickness measurement according to the wedge cut method
Determination of the coating thickness on metallic and non-metallic base materials and coatings.
Universal coating thickness measurement
- Coating thickness measurement on all coatings on any substrates (metallic and non-metallic base materials and coatings)
- Measurement of individual layers in multi-layer systems
- d = s * tan(α)
- Standards
- DIN 50968
- ISO 2808
- ASTM D 4138
- ASTM D 5796
Layer thickness measurement (wood, concrete or plastic)
- Layer thickness measurement on coatings such as wood, concrete or plastic
- s = b * tan(α)
- Standards
- DIN 50 968
- ISO 2808
- ASTM D 4138
- AS 1580 Meth. 408.1
