CHRocodile 2 IT for high-precision wall thickness measurement of medical balloons
It is almost impossible for the wall thickness of balloons and thin-walled tubes (from which balloon catheters are manufactured) to be measured from the inside. The wall thicknesses can merely be estimated mechanically. But a simple solution exists in the form of optical noncontact measuring techniques which offer thickness measurements as a starting point, because these techniques offer so much more
