Thickness gauges

The website of the company Adelix offers devices in the field of non-destructive testing of materials, including ultrasonic thickness gauges.

At Adelix you have the opportunity to purchase an ultrasonic thickness gauge suitable for your surfaces. The price of the ultrasonic thickness gauge is determined depending on the model and configuration.

To determine the thickness of the material or its coating, a special device is used - a thickness gauge. The device is designed for fast and accurate control of the thickness of metal products, parts or structures in the production and operating process. As well as products made from non-metals, such as plastic, ceramics, glass.

The thickness gauge allows you to check tanks, pipeline pipes to determine the corrosion condition. Also for checking the working wear of bridge, boat, transport and other structures.

There is a wide range of thickness gauges of the following types:

• mechanics,
• electromagnetic,
• ultrasonic,
• magnetic,
• eddy current.

Mechanical devices are the simplest models, which have the form of a scalloped plate along its edges. The marking on the comb allows you to determine the size of the paint, putty, soil layer immediately after it is applied to the base. When measuring, the integrity of the coating is violated.

An electromagnetic thickness gauge works using the magnetic induction effect and measures the thickness of a layer on a metal surface according to the magnetic field parameter. Measurements are taken without disturbing the scope, the accuracy of the data does not give an error of more than 3%.

The ultrasonic thickness gauge is one of the most accurate and allows you to determine not only the thickness of the layer, but also the number, depending on the material. An ultrasonic wave penetrates the object, is reflected back and is captured by the device's sensor. Such thickness gauges can easily distinguish the layers of putty, primer and paint. They use quality control tools for the manufacture of various products, measure coatings on any surface: glass, ceramics, etc. However, the tools are not suitable for measuring coatings on concrete, wood and foam surfaces.

The ultrasonic thickness gauge will do its job well not only in the lab but also in the field. Let's apply in metallurgical, machine-building, energy and mining enterprises, as well as in specialist and technical centers.

Magnetic devices are suitable for measuring coatings on metal surfaces (ferrous metals). The working body of the device is a permanent magnet and the measurement is made according to the decrease in the magnetic field depending on the thickness of the coating.

An eddy current thickness gauge is used on conductive surfaces. The generator of the device creates an electromagnetic field on the surface, whose eddy currents and parameters are affected by the insulating coating layer. This kind of device is highly sensitive in copper and aluminum products, it can measure metal objects to which magnetic patterns do not respond.

Ultrasonic frequency wave is the main "working tool". You do not need to spend a lot of time measuring the thickness of the coating, because the principle of operation of the device is extremely simple: a sensor with high sensitivity to ultrasound is placed inside the probe applied to the area. That is, the probe is pressed firmly to a certain point on the surface and the user presses the start button.

The probe emits an ultrasonic wave that passes through the examined coating, reaching the main layer, and the reflected ultrasonic wave hits the sensor and turns into an electrical pulse. The pulse is then digitized and analyzed, thanks to the “electronic filling” of the device. Simply put, the path traveled by the ultrasound wave is calculated.

Based on these data, the thickness of the top layer is calculated, as well as the thickness of the material itself, from which the object is made. In addition, ultrasonic metal thickness gauges make it possible to measure the thickness of objects that can be entered only from one side, not from two sides.

It is quite difficult to choose an ultrasonic metal thickness gauge, the price of which depends on the configuration. The cost, capabilities and functionality of the device are closely related.
In the nondestructive testing section of the company's website, the most advanced testing equipment for measuring the thickness of materials is presented.

The ADL UT20 is an ultrasonic thickness gauge with a wide range of applications. One of the advantages of the device is that it works with special high temperature sensors that allow one-sided control of products with a surface temperature of up to 350°C.

Control objects can be metal pipes or tanks before decommissioning, various steam pipelines, metal rods and cast products before cooling.

The modern basic base provides many UT20 thickness gauges with accurate and stable readings, and its shockproof case significantly increases the service life of the device compared to other analogues.

Ultrasonic thickness gauge ADL UT35 is used to measure the thickness of products and structures made of metal alloys and isotropic non-metallic materials, as well as to determine the corrosion status of products.

The thickness gauge ADL UT 35 with scanning modes A and B can be used to measure the wall thickness of tanks, pipes, pipelines, the thickness of bridges, boats, transport and other structures during operation or manufacturing.E-E-E (Echo-Echo-Echo) and P-E-С (Probe-Echo-Coating) modes allow you to control the thickness of the product without cleaning the coating.

To purchase the most suitable model of a thickness gauge, you need to familiarize yourself with the technical parameters and correlate them with the field of future application.

Modern digital instruments are equipped with the option to store measurements in memory, it is very easy to work with them due to their compactness and ease of use.

Adeliks offers a wide range of instruments for measuring the thickness of various materials and coatings. Devices of our own production - are characterized by a different principle of operation, a set of options and costs.
