Why choose the VenPad Sensor for your company?
Learn about the benefits of using the VenPad Sensor in your company.

The VenPad sensor has specially been developed for measuring the thickness profile of sticky film or with a sensitive surface vulnerable to scratching. Hinged loosely for easy adjustment to any film surface, the measuring head oscillates 360° around the bubble.
A so-called Venturi effect guarantees a constant distance between film and sensor in any part of the measurement. With a resolution of 0.1 µm, even the smallest thickness variations are detected.
