MiniTest 725 Coating Thickness Gauge
With Integrated Sensor
The MiniTest 725 is the ideal solution for all your coating thickness measurement needs, essential in industries where a flawless finish is key, such as automotive, shipbuilding, bridge engineering, and electroplating. Thanks to its integrated sensor and ergonomic design, this compact gauge is easily operated with one hand, fitting perfectly in the palm to provide comfortable and efficient operation.
Key Features of the MiniTest 725:
- Easy Handling: Ergonomic design with a rounded shape that facilitates one-handed operation.
- Measurement Versatility: Capable of measuring non-magnetic coatings (paint, enamels, chrome, etc.) on ferromagnetic substrates, as well as insulating coatings on non-ferrous metals (aluminium, copper, austenitic stainless steel, etc.).
- Irregular Surface Compensation: Its sensors are calibrated using predefined methods to adapt to various surface conditions, ensuring precise measurements.
- SIDSP® Technology: Incorporates Sensor-Integrated Digital Signal Processing, which digitally processes return signals with 32-bit precision, setting a new standard in coating thickness measurement.
- Included Software: Comes with MSoft 7 basic software, facilitating data transfer and real-time analysis.
Key Benefits:
- Non-Destructive Measurements: Obtain accurate readings without damaging the coating surface.
- High Precision and Reliability: SIDSP® technology and calibration methods guarantee consistent and exact results.
- Productivity Optimisation: With the option to adjust the measurement speed, you can choose to take multiple readings quickly or focus on individual readings with increased accuracy.
- Adaptability: Ideal for a wide range of industrial applications where coating thickness accuracy is essential.
