We widen our modular measurement system QNix® 8500 by a pen-shaped probe capable of precise measurements particularly for thin coatings on small parts.

In addition to our standard probes - based on the Hall-sensor-principle - we now offer a magnetic-inductive measurement probe with a measuring range of 0-500 µm for the most precise measurements of non-ferromagnetic coatings especially within the lower measuring range.

Designed to measure thin, non-ferromagnetic metal coatings (such as: chromium, copper, zinc, etc), lacquer, enamel or synthetic coatings on steel substrates using the magnetic-inductive measuring method, our probes deliver measurements in accordance with the DIN EN ISO 2178, ISO2808 und ASTM B499 standards.

Thanks to the pen shaped probes, manual adjustments on measuring objects are easy to achieve and accurate. For applications demanding highest precision, we recommend mounting the probe on one of our measuring stands, available with or without additional sample holders.

Our pen shaped probe - the latest modular addition to our QNix® 8500 measuring system - allows customers to specify individual calibrations for convenient measurements of thin-coated, small parts

• measurements on angle brackets, fasteners, shim washers, screws, bolts and nuts
• ensuring - within a measuring range of 20 µm - the reliability of protective coatings on steel bolts and nuts used for rotor mounts of wind energy plants, fasteners on bridge, window fixings, etc.
• used for hard thin film coatings (Physical Vapour Deposition (PVD)coatings), such as: TiN, TiCrN, CrN and TiAIN

• designed for manual measurements and use of measurement stand
• easy-to-use, navigated operation of the QNix® 8500 measurement system
• magnetic-inductive and Hall-effect measurement method can optionally be combined in one device
• QNix® 8500 modular measurement system offers interchangeable probes
• individual naming of calibration programs and memory
• excellent probe adjustment thanks to the pen shaped form
• rugged probe thanks to stainless steel design
• linked digital measurement electronics and measurement probe for keeping the zero balance even after interchanging probes
