MiniTest 735 Coating Thickness Gauge
External Sensor and SIDSP® Technology
The MiniTest 735 is the ideal solution for those who require precise, non-destructive coating thickness measurements, essential for achieving an impeccable finish and ensuring long-term success in industries such as automotive and shipbuilding. Designed with an external sensor connected via cable, this gauge combines an ergonomic design that fits perfectly in the palm of your hand with advanced technology that guarantees consistent results in demanding environments.
Key Features of the MiniTest 735:
- External Sensor: Provides flexibility and precision in measuring coatings on ferromagnetic and conductive substrates.
- SIDSP® Technology: Utilises Sensor Integrated Digital Signal Processing to digitally process signals at the point of measurement with 32-bit precision, ensuring high stability, adaptability, and wear resistance.
- Ergonomic Design: Its rounded, compact form facilitates one-handed operation, allowing the measurement speed to be adjusted for optimum productivity—whether taking multiple readings quickly or fewer readings with enhanced accuracy.
- Predefined Calibration: Calibration methods that compensate for irregular surfaces, adapting to various measurement conditions.
- Digital Transmission: Coating thickness data is transmitted digitally to the display unit via the sensor cable, eliminating interference from analogue processing.
Key Benefits:
- Reliable and Non-Destructive Measurements: Provides accurate readings without damaging the coating surface, crucial for rigorous quality control.
- High Adaptability: Ideal for measuring non-magnetic coatings (paint, enamel, chrome, synthetic material) on steel, as well as insulating coatings on non-ferrous metals.
- Superior Precision: SIDSP® technology minimises the effects of temperature fluctuations and substrate variability, delivering high-quality results.
- Easy Integration and Handling: Its compact design and advanced digital interface, along with the included MSoft 7 basic software, facilitate real-time data transfer and analysis.
