The app guides the user step-by-step through the calibration process before measuring. This makes it possible to avoid errors.

Fischer, global solution provider of innovative measurement technology, has recently come up with its latest mobile measuring system, the PHASCOPE PAINT, a handy device designed for quick and easy measurement of coating thickness. 

 

It uses the phase-sensitive eddy current method to test thick, insulating layers such as paints and anodised coatings on all common metals, whether ferrous or non-ferrous. The new instrument automatically detects what type the substrate is and selects the appropriate mode.

A special feature of the system is the corresponding app for Android and iOS smartphones, which are connected with the device via Bluetooth. 

 

In this app, various measurement tasks can be saved along with their tolerance limits. While measuring, if a reading is outside the defined limits, an LED on the gauge lights up. This is especially practical for inspecting large areas. And for this purpose, the PHASCOPE PAINT also has a continuous mode. In this mode, the probe is slid across a surface; it automatically takes up to 70 readings per minute. With the illuminating LEDs, defects in the coating can be detected immediately.

 

The PHASCOPE PAINT is designed for ease of use. Therefore, the app guides the user step-by-step through the calibration process before measuring. This makes it possible to avoid errors and exclude any outside influences on the measurement results.
