Engineers have long been searching for reliable and repeatable methods to measure thin gaps between 0.004″ (0.11mm) and 0.20″ (5mm). Mechanical contact methods such as feeler gauges, shims and calipers had long been the only available method to measure gaps, even in areas where damage could be caused to polished or sensitive surfaces. Capacitec has eliminated the requirement for the operator’s “feel” inherent in feeler gauges by developing a broad line of non contact industrial gap sensors as well as a new portable gap measurement tool named GAPMAN\u00ae. These modern Capacitec non contact methods now provide engineers with excellent repeatability with the added ease of digitally stored data for use in today’s advanced quality control systems.<\/p>\n
Thin Gap Major Applications:
\n•\tAdhesive coatings
\n•\tFilm manufacturing
\n•\tPlastic extrusions
\n•\tAutomotive & Aircraft assembly
\n•\tPackaging materials
\n•\tNuclear fuel rod gaps
\n•\tPhotocopiers \/ Printing
\n•\tTooling dimensions<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
