Coating Thickness Gauge GENWAY GL-1—portable non-destructive coating measurement device

GENWAY GL-1 is a portable non-destructive coating thickness gauge designed to measure protective and decorative coatings on a variety of substrates. The compact instrument delivers quick on-site readings of coating thickness to support quality control, inspection and maintenance operations. Built for field and workshop use, the device provides reliable numeric measurements suitable for routine checks on painted, powder-coated or plated surfaces.

Advantages

The gauge offers fast, contact-based thickness measurement without damaging the coating, enabling efficient inspection workflows. Its portable form factor and straightforward operation make it convenient for spot checks in production lines and field maintenance. The device produces repeatable numeric readings that assist technicians in verifying compliance with specified coating thickness requirements and detecting deviations during painting or surface treatment processes.

Suitable for

• Quality control in manufacturing and assembly lines
• Periodic maintenance and inspection of painted structures
• Pre-delivery inspections of coated components
• On-site field inspections for corrosion protection verification

Key specifications

• Measurement principle: non-destructive contact thickness measurement for coatings
• Application: protective and decorative coatings on metal and other substrates
• Portability: compact handheld design for on-site use
• Readout: numeric display of coating thickness values
• Typical use environments: workshops, production lines, field inspections

How to use

Place the probe flat against the coated surface and activate the measurement according to the device controls; the instrument will display the coating thickness value. For reliable results, ensure the substrate surface is clean and free of loose particles, and perform measurements at multiple points to account for local variation. Follow any calibration procedures provided by the manufacturer before critical measurements to maintain accuracy.

Usage recommendations

Use the gauge for spot checks across representative areas and record multiple readings to determine average thickness. Avoid measuring over edges, seams or heavily textured areas where contact may be inconsistent. Store the instrument in a dry, dust-free environment when not in use and perform periodic calibration checks to ensure continued measurement reliability.

GENWAY GL-1 is intended for practical, repeatable coating thickness verification tasks where non-destructive, rapid measurements are required.
