Innosen Launches IS9561 Tube Probe — A New Standard in Coating Thickness Control

May 2025 — Innosen, a global leader in sensor innovation for the metal packaging industry, proudly introduces the IS9561 Tube Probe, a next-generation lacquer thickness measurement tool engineered for unmatched accuracy, speed, and versatility across all metal tube types.

Crafted for Precision. Built for Simplicity. Designed for Every Tube.

The IS9561 is a capacitive manual probe that measures both interior and exterior coating thickness of metal tubes — delivering zero stiction, low noise, and higher accuracy than traditional methods. It’s ideal for packaging applications across cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, industrial products, and more.

With its universal compatibility, flexible design, and optimal load handling mechanism, the IS9561 resolves the limitations of single-purpose tools, enabling manufacturers to measure tubes of various diameters — including those as small as ⌀12 mm — all with one compact, easy-to-use device.

“It’s not just about measurement — it’s about measurable progress,” said Luc Nelen, President at Innosen. “The IS9561 empowers teams to move faster, reduce waste, and trust the numbers — no matter the tube size or shape.”

Defining Features of the IS9561 Tube Probe:

✅ Stiction-Free Accuracy

A rotary flexure system replaces traditional bearings — eliminating friction and measurement noise for ultra-precise lacquer thickness readings.

✅ Lightweight Engineering

Force multiplier flexure construction reduces counterweight needs while maintaining consistent probe pressure — making the probe lighter and easier to use.

✅ Universal Tube Compatibility

Handles a wide range of tube diameters and styles — including tubes, aerosols, and sidestripes — without the need to switch between devices.

✅ Tool-Free Tip Replacement

Change probe tips in under a minute using the included extractor tool, then recalibrate in just 15–20 minutes — for minimal downtime and faster throughput.

✅ Dual-Surface Measurement

Measure both the inner and outer lacquer layers — whether the tube is fully lacquered or partially bare — with formats like
(1) Lacquered Outer + Sheet + Lacquered Inner or
(2) Bare Ouer + Sheet + Lacquered Inner

✅ No Control Boxes or Dials

Operate the probe effortlessly with a simple lever and clip system. No need for complex interfaces — just fast, intuitive operation.

Accuracy. Versatility. Effortless Control.

The IS9561 sets a new benchmark in lacquer thickness control — combining engineering precision with user-friendly design. Its arrival marks a turning point for tube manufacturing quality control: one tool, endless adaptability.

Whether you’re a packaging engineer, quality control lead, or plant technician, the IS9561 Tube Probe delivers the confidence, speed, and precision modern production demands.

The future of coating thickness control is here.

Smaller. Smarter. Stronger.

Only from Innosen.
