Thickness Measurement Gauge

The new MiniTest FH 7000 by ElektroPhysik, Germany is designed for use with all non-magnetic (non-ferritic) materials such as plastics, wood, glass, ceramics, glass fibre, carbon fibre, non-ferrous metals etc. Typical field of application: wall thickness measurement of all types of containers such as bottles, cans, injection-mouldings, etc. Also plastic sheets, motorcar sheets, glass panes, SMC or other large-sized components can be measured without problems. Working on the magneto-static principle, the gauge reaches a measuring rate of up to 20 readings per second. Two sensors are available covering the ranges from 0?4 mm and 0?10 mm as well as a large choice of reference balls. According to sensor and reference balls a measuring accuracy of up to ? (0.5 ?m +1% of reading) can be obtained. Low range sensitivity is 0.1 ?m. For the operator, the new gauge series offers special advantages regarding operating convenience. The menu-controlled user surface on the large, backlit graphics display offers a user-friendly data management system similar to common PC applications enabling a convenient data management of your measuring series. A new feature is the context-sensitive on-line help so that in many cases the user does not consult the instruction manual any more. For use in poor-lit condition, a keypad backlight function is available. The software provides readings, statistics evaluation, histogram, trend diagram, real-time diagram (to visualise readings in continuous mode), min and max display as well as an offset-function. Readings are automatically stored into the gauge during the measuring procedure. The calibration modes offer different modes up to 5-point calibration. Calibration can be done over the complete range or over certain ranges. A special treatment of the reference balls enables a reproducibility of up to 0.5%.
