Calotest

The CALOTEST® is widely used for analyzing coatings with thicknesses of between 0.1 and 50 µm. The simple ball-cratering method is a fast and accurate means of checking the thickness of any coating, whether a single or multilayered stack. Typical examples include CVD, PVD, plasma spray coatings, anodic oxidation layers, surfaces treated by ion sputtering or ion plating, chemical and galvanic deposits, polymers, paints, and lacquers.
