Mechanical scanning thickness tester Contacting method thickness tester

Mechanical scanning thickness  tester is used to measure the thickness of plastic films, sheets, board, fabrics, textile, membranes, paper, foil, wafers and other materials.

Summary of test method

A specimen is placed on  base and a weighted presser foot lowers. The displacement between the base and the presser foot is measured as the thickness of the specimen.

Mechanical scanning thickness tester features

1.         PLC control and touch screen operation

2.         Contact area and pressure are standards conformed.

3.         Presser foot automatic lifting

4.         Real time display of maximum, minimum, average and standard deviation

5.         Data auto statistics, storage and micro printing

6.         RS232 port and software (Optional)
