Elcometer 550 Non-Contact Uncured Powder Thickness Gauge - The Elcometer 550 Mark II offers the User an unrivalled approach to measuring uncured powder thicknesses - without touching the powder. The Elcometer 550 Mark II is designed provide the user with the correct value of the cured film thickness by the measurement of the uncured powder thickness - enabling the application system (powder guns, line speed, etc) to be set up and fine tuned. > Improves quality and saves you money > Fast, easy to use > Metric and Imperial versions > Works on any rigid surface The Elcometer 550 Mark II is a coating thickness gauge that uses unique ultrasonic technology to measure uncured powder coatings without contacting the surface and predicts the final thickness of the coating after cure. The gauge has been designed for measuring the thickness of uncured powder coatings on smooth flat or curved metallic surfaces such as steel, aluminium, etc. The shrinkage that occurs when the powder cures in the oven is allowed for in the calibration of the gauge and the thickness displayed is the final coating thickness after cure. Standard features: > Uses ultrasonic technology to measure the thickness of the uncured powder coating, without touching the surface. > Can be used on all metallic surfaces, with all commerical powders. > Helps to easily avoid edge runs and orange peel effect by improved monitoring and control.
Elcometer 215 Oven Temperature Data Recorder - The Elcometer 215 is an easy to use oven temperature data recorder which can be used to measure and record the oven temperature profile. Logging both the product's surface and the air temperature in a cure oven, the Elcometer 215 identifies the "Temperature Profile" and so provides the User with sufficient information to ensure the consistent quality of your coating process. Suitable for powder coating cure ovens, wet coating cure ovens, batch ovens and conveyor ovens, the Elcometer 215's measurements, analysis levels and report options (fully customisable) generate tailor-made information about the curing processes.
Elcometer 415 Paint and Powder Coating Thickness Gauge - This easy to use, low cost gauge provides a simple, accurate and reliable way to measure coatings on smooth ferrous (steel) and non-ferrous (aluminium) substrates. This gauge with it's intuitive menu allows you to use it straight out of the box.
