Thickness measurement of easily deformable materials
Soft or flexible materials, such as rubber, felt, sponge, technical textiles or plastic films, require instruments that apply a constant, controlled force. Dial thickness gauges are fitted with calibrated contact points and springs to ensure reliable measurements even on surfaces prone to deformation. The operator can choose between different contact configurations and measuring forces, in accordance with the specifications of the material being tested.
Thickness measurement of sheets and strips on the production line
In production environments where sheets, foils or strips run continuously, thickness measurement with dial thickness gauges allows fast, frequent checks without interrupting the process. Portable instruments can be used directly on the line, while fixed and automated solutions enable real-time monitoring of the entire production cycle, helping to reduce scrap and keep quality within the required tolerances.
Quality control and incoming material inspection
During incoming material inspection or sample checks on the finished product, dial thickness gauges are indispensable instruments for certifying that thickness falls within the parameters specified by the customer or the technical standard. Measurements can be recorded manually or transferred via digital interfaces, making the process traceable and integrable with company quality management systems.
Thickness measurement to international standards
Thickness measurement with dial thickness gauges can be carried out in accordance with the main international standards (such as ISO, ASTM, DIN), which specify methods, contact geometries and test conditions. Certifiable instruments with metrological traceability ensure compliance with the standards required in the automotive, medical, textile and plastics sectors and in many other production chains.
Thickness measurement with analogue and digital thickness gauges
Dial thickness gauges are available in analogue versions with a pointer dial or in digital versions with a display, both with resolutions down to a hundredth or a thousandth of a millimetre. Digital models offer advantages such as data output (USB, Bluetooth, RS-232) for integration with acquisition software or MES systems, facilitating automation and statistical analysis.
Thickness measurement of moving materials
Thanks to their ergonomics and speed of reading, dial thickness gauges are also particularly suitable for checking moving materials, such as conveyor belts, rotating reels or sheets on rollers. The speed of measurement, combined with the mechanical strength of the instrument, allows prompt action in the event of out-of-specification results or process drift.
