Filmetrics systems are used widely in the automotive and aviation industries for thickness measurement of hardcoats and other protective films. The F10-HC is specially designed for the curved surfaces and multiple layers (e.g., primer/hardcoat) encountered in these applications.

Automotive Headlamp Applications

There are multiple points in automotive headlamp-assembly manufacturing where coating thickness is critical to quality. The thickness of the outer hardcoat layers and inner anti-fog layers on polycarbonate lenses and the base coat on reflectors are all important. Each of these applications offers a unique set of challenges and Filmetrics has developed the software, hardware, and applications knowledge to deliver the right solution.
