Paint Coating Thickness Gauge

The LANDTEK CM-8856 measures coating thickness on metal substrates using magnetic induction and eddy current principles. It suits automotive refinishing, industrial inspection and quality-control tasks where verifying paint or plating depth is required. The instrument stores readings in 99 groups and offers both single and continuous measurement modes. Data can be transferred to a PC through USB, RS-232 or Bluetooth interfaces.

F and N probe measurement

This gauge serves technicians who need to check non-magnetic coatings on ferrous metals or non-conductive coatings on non-ferrous metals. It is not intended for measuring coating thickness on non-metallic substrates such as plastic, wood or composite panels. Users who require ultrasonic or X-ray fluorescence methods for those materials should consider different equipment. The automatic substrate recognition and calibration memory simplify operation on supported metal bases.

Dual-method 99-group storage

The defining specification is the combination of magnetic induction (F) and eddy current (N) measurement in one unit with 99-group data storage. This dual-method capability determines whether the CM-8856 matches the range of substrates encountered in a given workflow. Buyers should confirm that their coatings and base metals fall within the F and N probe ranges before purchasing.

Questions about this item

What probe types does the CM-8856 gauge use for magnetic and non-magnetic substrates?

The CM-8856 uses F probes for non-magnetic coatings on magnetic metals and N probes for non-conductive coatings on non-magnetic metals, with separate probe options available.

How do I switch between single and continuous measurement modes on the CM-8856?

Select Single mode for individual readings or Continuous mode for curved or tiny objects; continuous mode disables the buzzer reminder during operation.

How many reading groups can the CM-8856 store before I need to offload data?

The gauge stores up to 99 groups of measurement data internally, which can be transferred to a PC via USB, RS-232 or Bluetooth.
