Bench Thickness Gauge:
Determination of thickness of fabric/rubber/paper,leather etc is
considerable importance, both for assuring conformity with design
parameters and for evaluation of various physical properties
determination of thickness of fabric sample in laboratory is usually
carried out with the help of a bench thickness gauge .The fabric
component whose thickness is to be determined is kept on a flat anvil
and a circular indenter is pressed onto it from the top under a
specified pressure .the contact faces of the anvil and the indenter
are ground flat and set in planes parallel to each other.
The “ASIAN” Bench Thickness Gauge for fabric consists
of a dial micrometer fitted on a digital micrometer fitted on a rigid
metallic frame .the micrometer has a flat circular indenter, Which
exerts the specified pressure on the fabric sample whose thickness is
being measured through a dead weight .the fabric sample is kept on an
anvil, which is in from of a flat circular platform. The axis of the
indenter and the anvil coincide and is the same as the axis of
movement of the indenter. The indenter can be raised and lowered
gently onto the fabric sample with the help of a lifting lever.
