TIME®2605 / TIME®2606
Coating thickness measurement on ferrous and non-ferrous metals – with or without Bluetooth
The coating thickness gauges TIME®2605 and TIME®2606 measure coatings non-destructively using the magnetic induction method (coatings on iron and steel) and the eddy current method (coatings on non-ferrous metals). With interchangeable probes, the instruments cover measuring ranges up to 10,000 µm.
Both instruments are technically identical and feature an integrated thermal printer for readings and statistics. The TIME®2606 additionally offers a Bluetooth interface for connecting to a smartphone.
Two working modes (DIRECT and BATCH), statistics functions, a memory for 10,000 readings and a limit alarm make the instruments a practical partner for inspection measurements in workshops, production and quality assurance.
Properties
- two measuring principles: magnetic induction (Fe) and eddy current (NFe)
- two working modes: DIRECT and BATCH, two measuring ways: CONTINUE and SINGLE
- statistics: mean, maximum, minimum, number of readings and standard deviation
- memory for 10,000 readings
- calibration: system error can be corrected by basic calibration
- alarm function when readings exceed or fall below the preset limits
- integrated thermal printer for readings and statistics
- battery indicator and error messages in the display
- manual or automatic shutdown
- TIME®2606 only: Bluetooth interface to smartphone
Measuring principles
- Magnetic induction (F): coating of non-magnetic material (e.g. gold, copper, zinc, tin, lead, resin, rubber, glass) on a magnetic substrate (e.g. iron, steel, cobalt, nickel)
- Eddy current (N): coating of non-conductors (e.g. paint, synthetic resin, rubber, glass) on non-magnetic metals (e.g. brass, copper, aluminum)
- probes for F, N or both methods (FN) selectable depending on the application
