Fiber Optic Probe for Paint Thickness Measurement

Optical fiber probes are used in the automotive industry for manufacturing and quality control applications where accurate measurement of protective coating thickness is required.

The featured custom fiber optic probe is designed for measuring the thickness of protective coatings on automotive headlight reflectors.

Measurement Principle

The probe is part of a spectroscopic measurement system used to evaluate the thickness of protective coating layers.

Light from an LED source is transmitted through optical fibers to the surface of the component being measured. The reflected light is then directed to a spectrometer for analysis and evaluation.

This principle enables non-contact optical measurement during manufacturing quality control processes.

Design and Technical Features

The optical probe incorporates a fiber optic configuration that transmits light between the light source, the measured surface, and the evaluation equipment.

The probe design and mechanical termination are adapted to the requirements of the specific measurement application.

Custom Manufacturing for Industrial Measurement

OPTOVIT manufactures specialized fiber optic probes and optical assemblies according to individual customer technical drawings and specifications.

Our manufacturing capabilities include optical fiber preparation, fiber termination, and the assembly of specialized optical components.

This project demonstrates our capabilities in custom fiber optic manufacturing for industrial measurement and quality control applications.
