Touchstone - Model 1 -Ultrasonic Thickness Gauge
The TOUCHSTONE 1 is a high-performance UT gauge. It is a low cost, simple to use handheld thickness gauge, often known as an ‘Ultrasonic Thickness Gage’ in the USA. It is suitable for use for a variety of applications in NDT (Non-Destructive Testing) and is capable of measuring most engineering materials including plastic, glass, copper, cast iron and aluminium, as well as a wide range of steels.
Ultrasonic thickness testing is used in quality control during manufacturing and as an inspection tool to measure the remaining wall thickness of materials – subject to erosion and corrosion.
The TOUCHSTONE™ 1 works using sound velocity. The TOUCHSTONE™ 1 ultrasonic thickness gauge sends ultrasound through the material you are measuring. The speed that it moves through the material gives a measure of the thickness of the material.
- The TOUCHSTONE™ 1 ultrasonic thickness gauge is widely used within the marine industry by both marine and CLASS surveyors.
- The TOUCHSTONE™ 1 ultrasonic thickness gauge is simple to calibrate and operate and process accurate and reproducible results.
