Quality and Durability
Coating Micron Test
Dry film thickness (DFT) or coating thickness is arguably the single most important measurement made during the application and inspection of protective coatings. Coatings are designed to perform their intended function when applied within the DFT range as specified by the manufacturer. Correct paint thickness ensures optimum product performance.
Regular film thickness measurement helps control material costs, manage application efficiency, maintain finish quality, and ensure compliance with contract specifications. Paint manufacturers recommend target ranges to achieve optimum performance characteristics and clients expect these parameters to be met.
Thickness Test
checking the thickness of steel sheets with a micrometer is a fundamental quality control measure that ensures product quality, manufacturing efficiency, and compliance with industry standards. A handheld, digital micrometer is a simple way to measure the thickness of sheet metal.
Metal Bending Test
A bond test is used to determine the ability of an adhesive to remain in contact with a surface or material while under stress or the adhesive’s ability to hold together two materials as they are stressed. The bond itself is tested after it has been applied and allowed to cure by either applying a force directly to the adhesive in an attempt to remove it from the material or by attempting to separate to materials to have been connected to each other by the adhesive. The force is then either steadily increased or remains constant and is applied to the bond until it fails.
