Thickness measurement systems
Purpose & use cases
FOGALE’s LAMINO thickness measurement systems are designed to measure the thickness of materials in motion, or track the wear and structural loss of components over time. They ensure:
- Precise process control on production lines (metal, glass, coatings)
- Early detection of material loss or wear in mechanical parts (e.g. brake discs)
- Stable measurement in harsh or fast-moving environments
- Inline inspection to meet regulatory or quality compliance
Architecture & key components
- Dual capacitive sensors in opposed configuration (for metal thickness measurement, non-contact)
- Single capacitive sensor configuration for glass thickness measurement (by contact)
- Specific signal conditioning electronics
- Support frames or custom mounting brackets for C-frame installations
- Cabling, protective housings, and optional reference gauge setup
Proven applications
- Metal strip lines: real-time thickness control with capacitive sensors mounted on a C-frame (mounting bracket)
- Coating thickness: for varnishes, paints, or functional layers (on conductive or dielectric surfaces)
- Glass/plastic bottle wall: thickness validation
- Brake wear monitoring: embedded or bench-mounted measurement of disc thickness
- Research and inspection: test benches for component aging and deformation
Key Advantages
- Micron-level resolution in dynamic environments
- Suitable for thin materials, coatings, and mechanical components
- Stable over temperature and vibration conditions
- Easy integration into industrial lines or embedded into OEM platforms
Services Available
- Custom sensor spacing and bracket engineering for any production line
- Qualification and traceability reports on request
