QNix® 4600 Car Paint Inspection Device with Integrated Probe Fe 3 mm

Introduction

The QNix® 4600 is a top-of-the-line coating thickness gauge, designed and manufactured in Germany for precision and reliability. Proudly distributed by Al Muhandes Workshop Equipment, the exclusive agent in the Middle East, this device is perfect for both industrial painting and vehicle appraisal, providing fast, accurate, and repeatable measurements. The QNix® 4600 with an integrated Fe 3 mm probe is particularly well-suited for applications requiring non-destructive testing on ferrous materials.

Fast & Comfortable Operation

• Automatic Substrate Detection: The device features an integrated Fe 3 mm probe that automatically detects the substrate, ensuring quick and reliable measurements.
• High Measurement Speed: Place the gauge on the surface, and it delivers instant readings, capable of performing up to 100 measurements per minute.
• Immediate Evaluation: Provides instant feedback with significant statistical data, including average, maximum, minimum, and standard deviation of the readings.
• No Adjustment Needed: The QNix® 4600 is ready for use in standard applications right out of the box, with no additional adjustments required.

Process Reliability and Accuracy

• High Accuracy: Delivers precise measurement results across the entire range with high repeatability, ensuring valid and reliable data.
• Temperature Compensation: Built into the probe to maintain accuracy even when operating under varying temperature conditions.
• Reliable Statistics: Displays all necessary statistical information for the current series of measurements, making data evaluation straightforward and reliable.

Perfect Readability

• Brilliant IPS LCD: The 2" color display offers a brightness of 350 cd/m² and a wide viewing angle of 70°, ensuring clear readability even in low light conditions.
• Automatically Flipping Display: The display rotates automatically between 0°, 90°, 180°, and 270°, making it easy to read measurements from any angle.
• Stable Measurements: The device’s low center of gravity and large contact surface ensure stable placement, minimizing the risk of incorrect measurements.
