New Hand-Held CGX Gauge Features Automatic Surface Scanning For Coating Thickness Measurement

ELK GROVE VILLAGE, IL (January 10, 2005) — Oxford Instruments Coating Measurement (OICM) introduces the new CGX-S/2 gauge for measuring the film thickness of paint or powder coating on aluminum or steal over a large surface. The CGX-S/2 enables you to scan a designated area and transmit high and low readings directly to your PC. This feature is available throughout the 200 Series line.

In addition, with OICM's unique calibration feature, it is possible to accurately measure coatings over pretreated substrates. Without this capability, the ability to accurately track varying coating thickness is compromised.

Expanded microprocessor capacity permits a time and date stamp to be provided with each reading, essential to a completely functional SPC program. The CGX gauges combine both eddy current and magnetic induction measurement principles.
