MTG-with-Transducer
MTG-Run-Chart

The Elcometer Ultrasonic Material Thickness Gauges have all the features and functionality necessary for measuring material thickness and velocity on virtually any material - for a wide range of applications.

  • Summary

    • Summary

    • MTG-Intelligent-Product-feature

      Intelligent

      User definable limits for pass/fail indication

      Users are able to set upper and lower limits with audible and visual pass/fail warnings. Limits can be set for individual readings or for each batch.

      MTG-Accurate-Product-feature

      Accurate

      A range of calibration options for accuracy and efficiency

      The MTG gauges have a range of calibration options including the 1-Point calibration method. Users can also select one of 39 pre-set materials stored within the gauge or store up to three calibrations into the memory.

      MTG-Versatile-Product-feature

      Versatile

      Measures uncoated & coated surfaces

      Flexible & easy to use, the Elcometer MTG range doesn’t just measure uncoated surfaces but can also measure coated surfaces. Using Echo Echo ThruPaint™ Mode (EE), coatings up to 2mm (80mils) are ignored.

      • Auto recognition, ensures correct probe is identified when transducer is changed
      • Scan Mode at 16Hz, ideal for measuring a large surface area
      • User selectable reading resolution; 0.1mm (0.01”) or 0.01mm (0.001”)
      • Pulse Echo (PE), Echo Echo ThruPaint™ & Velocity (VM) measurement modes
      • Hi & Lo limit indicators provides indication of problem areas
      • Some MTG gauges are supplied as a gauge only. Transducers must be ordered separately
      • Integrated zero disc, ensures maximum accuracy
      • Stores up to 100,000 readings in up to 1,000 sequential batches
      • Selectable reading rate of 4, 8, 16Hz (4, 8, 16 readings per second)

MTG-with-Transducer
MTG-Run-Chart

The Elcometer Ultrasonic Material Thickness Gauges have all the features and functionality necessary for measuring material thickness and velocity on virtually any material - for a wide range of applications.

MTG-Intelligent-Product-feature

Intelligent

User definable limits for pass/fail indication

Users are able to set upper and lower limits with audible and visual pass/fail warnings. Limits can be set for individual readings or for each batch.

MTG-Accurate-Product-feature

Accurate

A range of calibration options for accuracy and efficiency

The MTG gauges have a range of calibration options including the 1-Point calibration method. Users can also select one of 39 pre-set materials stored within the gauge or store up to three calibrations into the memory.

MTG-Versatile-Product-feature

Versatile

Measures uncoated & coated surfaces

Flexible & easy to use, the Elcometer MTG range doesn’t just measure uncoated surfaces but can also measure coated surfaces. Using Echo Echo ThruPaint™ Mode (EE), coatings up to 2mm (80mils) are ignored.
