Digital Ultrasonic Thickness Testers
Time TT100
TT100 is a hand held microprocessor controlled thickness gauge
specifically designed for measuring the thickness of metallic and
non-metallic materials e.g. aluminium, titanium, plastics, ceramics,
glass and other good ultrasonic wave-conducting as long as the
material has parallel top and bottom surfaces.
With uses in many areas of industry TT100 can perform precise
measurements on various types of raw materials, components
parts, and assembled machinery. It can also be used to monitor
all types of pipes and pressure vessels for loss of thickness due
to corrosion.
TT100 is very easy to use, after a simple calibration to a known
thickness or sound velocity, the gauge will give fast and accurate
readings in millimetres. Sound velocities for 5 different materials
can be pre-set and 10 thickness readings can be stored in the
memory.
