BYK-Gardner USA announced its New Premium line of Dry Film Thickness gauges, the byko-test 9500 series.

Two new versions of the byko-test 9500 replaces the byko-test 8500 series.

Both models come with a detachable probe and a cable for different modes of operation. They have functions to store, archive, and document measured values, easily change device settings on a PC using the software and pre-configure, for example by setting pass/fail limits.
