Advanced Wedge-Cut Coating Thickness Analysis

The PAINTXPLORER 548 by Erichsen is designed to significantly advance the application capabilities beyond those of the PAINT BORER 518 MC/518 USB. This innovative device is especially beneficial for sensitive drilling into rigid or brittle materials. By incorporating an advanced rotating/sliding high precision axle-bearing device, the PAINTXPLORER 548 ensures minimal material breakage and chipping, resulting in highly accurate optical measurements even in layers with challenging transitions.

Despite its mobility within the mains cable range, this tabletop unit is a steadfast laboratory equipment. Versatility is a hallmark, with the unit operable by hand or with the included measuring stand. Unlike its predecessors, the PAINTXPLORER 548 offers a separate measuring microscope, available for intricate evaluations such as lacquer damage, corrosion, and pore assessments, contributing to its sleek and manageable design.

The operation mirrors that of the PAINT BORER 518 MC/518 USB but enhances user convenience and measurement reliability. The included drill bits, felt tip pens, and other accessories ensure a comprehensive solution for precise coating thickness measurement across a broad range of substrates and applications.
