The coating thickness could be detected by a magnetic way with a particular instrument called Magne-gage.

The lab is equipped with two magnetic instruments both calibrated on the following band: diamagnetic films on magnetic substrates.

Therefore they are suitable to detect e.g. zinc, chrome, cadmium, phosphate coatings etc…..mainly on iron or steels.

The mentioned instrument has a good sensibility and it neither destroys nor partially damages the analysed items.
