We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Thickness Measurement",
and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest.
Let me be your guide.
Start with
the news release Displacement sensor brochure released from
PI (Physik Instrumente), which we summarised at the time by saying "PI (Physik Instrumente)'s brochure features a tutorial on single-plate and dual-plate capacitive sensors and an applications overview".
A few weeks before,
we featured the news release Ultrasonic flaw detector scans structures from
GE Inspection Technologies: "The Phasor XS has brought phased array flaw-imaging capability to everyday inspection in an easy to use, portable and affordable ultrasonic instrument".
In February 2007, we covered the news from Micro-Epsilon UK
concerning its optoNCDT 2402 sensors
- take a look at Sensors fit into tight spaces
which says: "Micro-Epsilon's miniature confocal displacement measurement sensors are suitable for measuring inside confined spaces such as narrow cavities, drilled holes and bores".
Take a look also at the news release from Delmia, Simulation tool aids robotic system development,
as well as Ultrasonic flaw detector reduces inspection times from GE Inspection Technologies,
and Added benefits for portable flaw detector from GE Inspection Technologies.
