Caliper Thickness Tester (Motorised / Automatic) (Dead-Weight Type)

This is a precision instrument to accurately measure the thickness of flexible and semi-rigid

substrates like tissue, paper, board, corrugated board, plastic films, laminates, foils, etc.

A Digimatic caliper gauge is mounted on the base with a Dead Weight on top so as to develop a

uniform, reproducible constant pressure on the anvil through the foot.

This model has a special motorised mechanism which lifts and releases the measuring foot in a

simple cyclic motion. This helps the operator to use both of his hands to load and unload the samples

and the user can take 6 - 10 readings per minute. There is also a 3+1 second time delay between the

release-lift action of the measuring foot. This ensures the highest levels of reproducibility and also

confirms to various international standards.
