TQC Sheen Coatmaster Flex

TQC Sheen Coatmaster Flex

Manufactured by TQC Sheen

This coating thickness measurement device rapidly measures wet or cured and dried powders and paints.

The portable design enables you to quickly and accurately analyse the thickness of coatings applied to ceramic, coil, glass, metal, paper, plastic, rubber, and wood surfaces, wherever and whenever you need to.

Even better, the TQC Sheen Coatmaster Flex boasts fantastic green credentials, as it slashes your environmental footprint by reducing your material consumption by up to 30%. Customers have told us it has saved them up to $6,000 per month (around £4400) on coating material, per production line.

Offering accuracy, reliability and convenience, it requires minimal calibration, and is also insensitive to the angle and distance of measurement.

The Coatmaster Flex is incredible easy to handle and operate — just pick it up and start measuring, so you can maintain optimal quality standards.

Benefits

  • Total control over your coating thickness measurements, avoiding the need for frustrating and costly rework and rejects.
  • Portable and durable, offering contactless and non-destructive support in industrial environments, with zero dangerous emissions.
  • Expect fast and reproducible measurements, even on critical parts with narrow or moving surfaces.
  • Contactless, non-destructive control over the testing of your coatings.
  • Follows the thermal layer testing (TLT) principle, with the patented technology not relying on magnetic induction or ultrasound.
  • Saves coating material and protects the environment.
  • Brings the coating process for coils into the target range after only a few metres.
  • Savings of coil and coating material pay for themselves in just a few months.
  • Large tilt intolerance of 70° (depending on coating and substrate material).
  • Suitable for thicker layer thicknesses.
  • Suitable for measuring moving parts.
  • Suitable for dry and wet film coatings.
  • Measurement data securely stored in the cloud.
  • Comes supplied with a rechargeable battery 18V (2x) and charger; and a durable transport case.
