The paint test equipment was developed for quality control and offers a high accuracy. When using the paint test equipment, you can choose between different color spaces (CIE L*a*b*C*h, CIE L*a*b*). After a measurement with the paint test equipment, the reading can be used as a reference value while other readings can be recorded as a sample and later be compared to the reference value easily.

- Measuring geometry 8°/d
- White calibration standard included
- Stores 100 reference values and 20,000 samples
- Measuring aperture is 8 mm
- optional liquid sample kit listed under accessories
The PCE-CT 28 Thickness Gauge for cars is for measuring the thickness of paint and plastic on ferrous or non-ferrous metals without damaging the coating's surface. The Thickness Gauge stands out due to its high range of measurement.
- Measurement range: 0 ... 1250 µm / 49.2 mils
- Resolution: 0.1 µm / 0.004 mils (in a range of 0.0 µm ... 99.9 µm / 3.9
mils) 1 µm / 0.04 mils (above the range)
- Accuracy: ± 2% or 2.5 µm / 0.1 mils (highest reading is valid)
- Display: LCD with 4 mm x 10 mm (0.2 in x 0.4 in) high digits
PCE-5000 is a portable hardness tester or durometer that uses the ASTM A1038 ultrasonic contact impedance (UCI) method to measure the hardness of metals and alloys to measure on a minimum material thickness of 2 mm / .08 in. The test instrument can be mounted on a test stand (as an option) for series measurement in manufacturing process checking. Non-destructive testing produces microscopic indentation.
- Measurement according to ASTM A1038 ultrasonic contact impedance (UCI) method
- Measurement units: Rockwell A (HRA), Rockwell B (HRB), Rockwell C (HRC), Brinell (HB), Vickers (HV) and MPa (N/mm²) SI units

- Accuracy: ± 1.5 HR, ± 3% HB, ± 3% HV, Repeatability: ± 0.3%
- Memory size: 1,000 groups for measurement data and 20 groups for calibration data
- Different probe types (also automatic motorized probes) available
PCE-CT 65 is a paint thickness gauge that uses magnetic induction (ferrous) or eddy current (non-ferrous) to take non-destructive measurements of coating and dry film thickness (DFT) on metal substrates such as steel and aluminum. This thickness gauge is ideal for painted and powder-coated surface testing, automotive paint inspection, coated material testing, and manufacturing quality control applications.
- Measuring range of 0 ... 1350 µm / 0 ... 53 mils
- Accuracy of ±2.5 % ±2 µm for 0 ... 1000 µm / ±3.5 % for 1000 µm ... 1350
µm / ±2 % ±0.08 mils for 0 ... 39.3 mils / ±3.5 % for 39.3 mils ...
53.1 mils
- Saves up to 1500 measurements to memory
