Abstract

To measure the thickness of a coating, many properties have been utilized. Measurements have been described that use the atomic configuration, electrochemical equivalent, corrosion rate, electrical conductivity, magnetic properties, density, and actual linear measure of the coating. In addition to these methods, tests have been successfully performed by using theelectrical resistance and transparency of the coating. Each of these methods has its proper application. It is obvious that one system is not capable of satisfying the needs of every plater.Certainly, a plater coating 10,000 fasteners per barrel load at a rate of 50 barrel loads per shift has a problem that is substantially different from a plater that hard chromium plates printing rolls. Experience and judgment are required, and the responsibility for choosing the most economical thickness-measuring system adequate for a particular problem is not a simple task.
