Global Coating Thickness Gauge Competitive Landscape Professional Research Report 2025

Research Summary

A coating thickness gauge, also known as a paint thickness gauge or coating thickness meter, is a handheld device used to measure the thickness of coatings applied to metal or non-metal substrates. It operates based on either magnetic induction or eddy current principles, depending on the type of coating being measured. Magnetic induction gauges are suitable for measuring non-magnetic coatings (such as paint, enamel, chrome, etc.) on ferrous substrates, while eddy current gauges are used for measuring non-conductive coatings (such as paint, anodizing, powder coating, etc.) on non-ferrous substrates. The gauge works by placing its probe on the coated surface, and it generates a magnetic field or induces eddy currents, which interact with the substrate and coating layers, providing readings that accurately indicate the thickness of the coating. Coating thickness gauges are widely used in industries such as automotive, aerospace, marine, metal fabrication, and quality control to ensure coatings meet specified thickness requirements, corrosion protection standards, and product quality standards. They are essential tools for maintaining coating integrity, preventing corrosion, and ensuring product durability and performance. Modern coating thickness gauges often feature digital displays, user-friendly interfaces, and data storage capabilities for efficient and accurate measurement recording and analysis.
