Metallic Covering Layer Thickness

Purposes：

The thickness of the metal covering layer and its uniformity are an important quality marks of coating, it largely influences the reliability and service life of products. Detecting the thickness of the metal covering layer on the material surface and its uniformity helps to monitor the product quality, improve technology, and improve business efficiency.

Applications:

Mainly used in protecting the small and precision instrument parts and anti-abrasion shaft repair, as well as beautifying, decorating the material appearance or conductive, anticorrosion performance etc.
