® Magna-Mike 8500 Precision Thickness Gages Features ■ Minimum Mode continually displays low- est thickness readings ■ Handheld and lightweight (2.1 lb.) ■ Few keys for simple operation ■ Backlight LCD with large numerals ■ Fast thickness measurements up to 16 per second ■ Finds minimum thickness in tight corners ■ Easily measures center of large parts ■ Accuracy not dependent upon shape or properties of test material ■ Internal file-based datalogger stores up to 95,000 thickness readings Precision Thickness Gage The Panametrics-NDT™ Magna-Mike 8500 When the operator scans the probe is a handheld thickness gage that utilizes along the surface or critical corners, a magnetic method to make reliable and the small steel target ball will follow. In repeatable measurements on nonferrous the Minimum Mode feature, the gage materials. Operation of the Magna-Mike continually displays both the actual 8500 is very simple. Measurements are thickness and the lowest thickness reading. made when its magnetic probe is held on Other Applications one side of the test material and a small The Magna-Mike 8500 is the ideal steel target ball is placed on the opposite instrument for measuring difficult shapes side. A Hall-effect sensor built in the probe and sizes. Nondestructive measurement measures the distance between the probe capabilities allow for pinpoint thickness tip and target ball. The measurement is readings in tight corners and grooves down instantly displayed as an easy-to-read to a radius of 1/32”. The Magna-Mike has digital thickness reading. been successfully integrated into quality Plastic Bottles control programs for glass and aluminum In applications such as plastic containers, containers, aerospace composite parts, the operator simply drops the small target medical packaging, automotive panels, ball inside the container.
