Material thickness measurement up to 225 mm

The thickness meter can measure material thicknesses up to 225 mm / 8.85″. So that the material thickness of a wide variety of homogeneous materials can be measured, it is possible to store the corresponding speed of sound in the thickness meter. For materials such as steel, aluminum, zinc, silver and gold, the appropriate sound speeds are already stored in the device library. This means that the thickness meter can be used universally. With the limit value function in the thickness meter, individual maximum and minimum values can be stored. If the measured value of the test piece is outside the limits, the thickness meter signals this visually.

Material thickness measurement up to 300 mm

The thickness meter can measure material thicknesses up to 300 mm / 11.81″. So that the material thickness of a wide variety of homogeneous materials can be measured, it is possible to store the corresponding speed of sound in the thickness meter. For materials such as steel, aluminum, zinc, silver and gold, the appropriate sound speeds are already stored in the device library. This means that the thickness meter can be used universally. With the limit value function in the thickness meter, individual maximum and minimum values can be stored. If the measured value of the test piece is outside the limits, the thickness meter signals this visually.

The coating thickness gauge PCE-CT 26FN can measure nondestructive coatings (paints, plastics …) on steel / iron and nonferrous metals. The coating thickness gauge is ideally suited, for example, to detect accidental damage to the vehicle immediately. But also in the industrial sector, the PCE-CT 26FN coating thickness gauge is used for incoming and outgoing inspection in order to be able to offer consistently consistent product qualities. The ergonomically shaped coating thickness gauge with integrated probe and very simple operation allows you to quickly determine measurement results with high accuracy.

Measuring range of 0 … 2000 μm / Micro-USB / visual and acoustic alarm

The material tester has a measuring range of 0 … 2000 μm. The material tester can measure the coating thickness on ferrous (Fe) and non-ferrous (NFe) metals.
For a better analysis of the measurements, the coating thickness gauge has a measuring function based on the SSPC standards. With this function, the corrosion protection of a coating can be checked with the material tester. The group function stores the measured values directly. A memory of 50 groups with 50 measurements each is available. In each group, statistics are created for all measured values from the material tester. All measurement data and statistics can be recalled after a measurement run.

Paint layer thickness gauge for Fe and NFe

The paint layer thickness gauge PCE-CT 80 is a measuring device for the non-destructive measurement of coatings (lacquers, paints, plastics …) on steel / iron and non-ferrous metals. Thanks to the externally connected sensor on the PCE-CT 80 paint coating thickness gauge, even difficult-toreach measuring locations can be easily reached. The menu navigation of the paint thickness gauge allows easy adjustment and setting to new parameters and makes this handy paint coating thickness gauge an indispensable tool for control measurements in production, workshop and quality assurance.

Leeb hardness tester for metals / measurement of tensile strength

The Leeb hardness tester PCE-900 measures the hardness of nine different metals using the Leeb rebound method. This means that an impact body bounces on a metallic surface and the intensity of the rebound is used as an indicator of the material hardness.
The hardness test instrument PCE-900 can show the metal hardness in 6 different hardness scales, including: Rockwell, Vickers, Leeb, Brinell and Shore. A distinction is made between Rockwell B and C when measuring in the Rockwell scale. Via the data interface, the measured values can be transmitted live to the PC. The delivery scope is completed by an ISO calibration certificate.

Leeb hardness tester for metals

The PCE-2000N hardness tester from PCE-Instruments uses the Leeb rebound method. This is a dynamic hardness test method in which a standardized test specimen, usually a hard metal ball, hits a test surface at a defined impact energy. The impact of the hard metal ball on the test surface results in a plastic deformation of the surface at the point of impact. This deformation results in an energy loss which is proportional to the hardness of the workpiece and which can be determined by means of the ratio of rebound to impact velocity of the specimen.

For metallic materials / Measuring range 170 … 960 HLD

The hardness tester PCE-2900 has been developed for hardness measurements on metallic materials. The hardness tester measures the material hardness in Vickers, Brinell, Rockwell, Leeb and Shore. The hardness tester PCE-2900 measures the hardness according to the Leeb rebound principle. An impactor bounces on the workpiece via a firing pin and the metal hardness is measured via the rebound. The PCE-2900 hardness meter is equipped with a backlit colour display. Likewise, the buttons on the PCE-2900 are illuminated. Thus, the display can be read well even in low light conditions. The impact device is connected to the hardness tester via a cable.

Two hardness measurement methods: Ultrasonic and dynamic

The hardness tester PCE-3000ULS combines two hardness measuring methods: Ultrasonic and Dynamic. This makes the instrument a versatile and effective solution for quality control of materials at the input, between operations and at the output. The universal hardness tester PCE-3000ULS is used for various tasks. It is well suited for measuring carbon and structural steels, surface hardened products, heat resistant, corrosion resistant, stainless steels, galvanised coatings, hardfacing, products of complex configuration, thin-walled and compact products.
