About Precision Ultrasonic Thickness Gage

As an Authorized dealer we are engaged in providing the broad assortment of NDT Instruments for wide range of application.

PM-5 series High precision ultrasonic thickness gauge made by our factory according to ultrasonic measuring principle, take advantage of single delay probe, transmit the ultrasonic wave from one side of the measured work-piece to the internal of the material, real-time measure the digitized thickness, without cutting the object. It is a sub-miniature measuring gauge. The features include fast response, non-destruction and precise measuring. It adopts the Multiple-wave check method to enhance the accuracy, makes the resolution reach to 0.001mm, and the lower limit as little as 0.2mm. In addition, A/B-scan waveform display is available by showing the echoes, which enables the more extensive measure range, more precise result and very little measurement error and finally makes the measuring processes more controllable.

Features :

High precision, 0.001 mm resolution
Real time A-Scan with adjustable gain, range, blanking etc.
Especially fits for ultrathin work piece, can accurately and reliably measure down to 0.2 mm
Measure through coatings, e.g. coatings on the substrate, the net thickness of the substrate can be measured without removing coatings
Unique multiple-wave verify mode, all the thickness values have been checked through 3 to 9 times of echos, which makes the result more reliable and accurate

FAQs of Precision Ultrasonic Thickness Gage:

Q: How does the Precision Ultrasonic Thickness Gage operate?

A: The device works by emitting ultrasonic pulses through the material using a high-precision transducer. The time it takes for the echo to return is measured, allowing the gage to accurately calculate the thickness, even for coated or curved surfaces as small as 20 mm in diameter.

Q: What types of materials can I measure with this ultrasonic thickness gage?

A: You can measure the thickness of a wide variety of ultrasonic conductive materials, including steel, aluminum, copper, glass, plastics, ceramics, and more. Always ensure proper calibration and use the correct probe for optimal results.

Q: When should the device be calibrated, and what calibration options does it offer?

A: It is recommended to calibrate the gage before each measurement series or whenever changing material types. The gage provides both single point and two-point calibration modes to accommodate different accuracy requirements and material properties.

Q: Where can I use the Precision Ultrasonic Thickness Gage?

A: This gage is designed for both industrial and laboratory usage. It can be utilized anywhere within its specified temperature range (-10C to 60C for operation) and is suitable for fieldwork, factory inspection, or research labs.

Q: What is the process for performing a thickness measurement with this device?

A: First, select and connect the appropriate probe. Apply coupling gel to the probe and the specimen surface, calibrate the device if necessary, and then press the probe against the material. The measured thickness will display instantly on the LCD screen.

Q: How do I benefit from features like data hold, alarm function, and sound velocity adjustment?

A: Data hold allows you to retain a reading for easy recording. The alarm function alerts you if measurements exceed set thickness limits. Adjustable sound velocity ensures precision across different materials, maximizing measurement accuracy and flexibility.

Q: What comes standard with the Precision Ultrasonic Thickness Gage, and are there optional accessories?

A: Standard accessories include an ultrasonic probe, coupling gel, carrying case, and instruction manual. You may also select from a variety of optional probes tailored for specific materials or surface conditions to further extend the devices versatility.
