Materials, access conditions, expected range, and inspection environment determine the right measurement method.

Asset integrity

Wall thickness on pipes and vessels

Ultrasonic gauging can measure remaining wall thickness from one accessible side. Material sound velocity, surface condition, coupling and temperature affect the result. Confirm probe suitability and site operating procedures before inspection; suitability for in-service measurement depends on the application.

  • Steel pipe, tank and vessel walls.
  • One accessible side; clean, coupled contact surface.
  • Confirm wall range, temperature and material grade.

Conformal coating thickness on PCBs

Eddy-current measurement may suit insulating coatings over accessible conductive, non-magnetic substrate areas on a PCB. Copper geometry, underlying layers and probe clearance affect feasibility. Confirm the substrate construction and validate the method on representative samples before selecting an instrument.

  • Coating over copper on assembled boards.
  • Needs a conductive non-ferrous base and flat contact.
  • Confirm coating type, thickness target and component clearance.

Optical materials

Visible light transmittance on glass and film

Optical transmittance measurement supports inspection of glass and films. Sample thickness, curvature, optical properties and access to both sides influence instrument selection. Confirm the measurement geometry and validate representative samples; suitability for installed glazing depends on the instrument and access.

  • Tinted glass, coated glazing and applied film.
  • Keeps the sample square to the light path.
  • Confirm panel size, curvature and film type.
Selection guide

Five questions narrow the field.

Start with the substrate, coating or wall material, expected range, access conditions, and the accuracy your process requires.

  1. What material is being measured?
  2. What layer or wall thickness is expected?
  3. Can you access one side or both?
  4. What surface geometry must the probe fit?
  5. How will results be recorded?

Measurement method

Magnetic, eddy current, ultrasonic, or optical?

The physical principle must match the substrate and the layer being measured.

Probe selection

Small parts and curved surfaces need the right contact geometry.

Minimum area, curvature, and substrate thickness can be as important as range.

Not sure which instrument fits your application?

Send four details with your inquiry and our team can match the measurement method, probe and instrument family to your task instead of guessing from a catalog.

What to include

  • The material or substrate being measured.
  • The measurand and the range you expect.
  • Part shape, curvature and probe access.
  • Working conditions and how results are recorded.
