Applications

Portable instrument providing sufficient accuracy for laboratory use but also usable at construction sites and in workshops. Ideal for customer service technicians and demonstrations. The byko-cut is a universal instrument for:

  • Measuring film thickness in the range of 2 - 2000 µm (1/8 - 80 mils) on every substrate (steel, non-ferrous metal, plastics, wood, etc.) 
  • Adhesion test by means of cross-cut test in accordance with ASTM D 3359; DIN 53 151.
  • Indentation hardness test in accordance with DIN EN ISO 2815 (Buchholz)
  • Microscopic research for pores, pits, cracks, blisters, flaking, inter coat adhesion of the individual film in coat systems, and quality control of the pretreatment of the substrate.
