Coating Thickness Measurement / CTM

Non-destructive gauge measuring remaining coating on 2-stroke piston rings (0-2000 μm) by magnetic induction and eddy current; compatible with LDM.

Description

CTM measures the remaining lifetime of coated piston rings in 2-stroke engines. It measures non-magnetic coatings on magnetic base materials, such as chromium-plated or plasma-coated cast iron, and on non-magnetic bases, such as plastic-coated stainless steel, detecting the base material type automatically.

Key features

  • Magnetic induction and eddy current measuring principle
  • Thickness range 0-2000 μm
  • About 15 minutes per liner
  • Small enough for hard-to-reach areas; non-destructive
  • Compatible with LDM; trend-plotting software included

Applications

  • Piston ring wear monitoring on 2-stroke engines
