TUBE PROBE
IS9561
Fast, accurate, and non-destructive coating thickness testing for aluminium collapsible tubes
The IS9561 Tube Probe is Innosen’s high-precision solution for measuring internal and external lacquer thickness on aluminium collapsible tubes—without the need for destructive weigh-strip-weigh methods. Specially designed to work with the IS860 CoatPro, this probe delivers exceptional repeatability and reproducibility (R&R), helping tube makers ensure product safety, performance, and cost efficiency.
With its narrowed probe tip and innovative flexure system, the IS9561 can measure tubes as small as ø12 mm and lengths up to 160 mm, delivering accurate results every time. From optimizing spray machine settings to maintaining coating integrity, this smart probe makes quality control simple, fast, and reliable.
