PosiTest® PC

Non-contact Uncured Powder Thickness Gauge

The Positest PC evaluates uncured powder coatings using non-contact ultrasonic technology to predict a cured thickness. The unit has no cable to brush and disturb powders and is simple to record measurements even over moving parts.

It is suitable over any geometry, even small tubes, odd shapes or moving parts. When precision is critical a calibration adjustment can improve accuracy over unconventional substrates or exotic powders.

The PosiTest PC has the ability to stream positioning and measurement data via its USB port, and can be integrated into on-line, automated applications. A USB Retention Fixture accessory ensures the cabled connection never comes away.

Features

• No calibration adjustment required for most powders, but available if useful.
• Scan Mode continuously takes measurements — ideal for analysing large areas
• Target Grid simultaneously displays distance to the part and alignment, making measurements easy
• Solvent, acid, oil, water and dust resistant — ideal for harsh powder coating environments

Operation

A target grid guides the user to placing the PosiTest PC the correct distance from the piece under test, this is 2 cm away, and aligned perpendicular to the surface.
