High precision Thickness test of packaging raw material ISO 4593 FTT-01

Thickness tester employs mechanical scanning method to measure the thickness of plastic films, sheets, board, fabrics, textile, membranes, paper, foil, wafers and other materials.

Summary of test method

A specimen is placed on the base and a weighted presser foot lowered. The displacement between the base and the presser foot is measured as the thickness of the specimen.

Features

1.         PLC control and touch screen operation

2.         Contact area and pressure are standards conformed.

3.         Presser foot automatic lifting

4.         Real time display of maximum, minimum, average and standard deviation

5.         Data auto statistics, storage and micro printing

6.         RS232 port and software (Optional)
