Abstract: 1,013,348. Electric tests. ILFORD Ltd. May 2, 1963 [May 4, 1962], No.17308/62. Heading G1N [Also in Division H3]  The thickness of a magnetic oxide coating on a photogrpahic film is measured by causing a core with an air gap to move backwards and forwards so that the gap alternately embraces the magnetic material and then moves away, the changes in reluctance being used to give the desired indication. In a preferred embodiment the core carries the frequency determining coil of an oscillator, and the output of the oscillator is thus frequency modulated at a low frequency with a deviation proportional to the thickness of the film. As shown in Fig. 1 the ferroxcube core is reciprocated at 2c/s and for a predetermined magnetic layer thickness produces a 15c/s modulation of a 1.000 Mc/s transistor oscillator. This oscillator output is mixed with the output of a valve oscillator of frequencey 1.001 Mc/s thus producing a beat frequency of 1Kc/s frequency modulated with a deviation of approximately 15c/s the deviation varying at 2c/s and being of amplitude proportional to the thickness of the magnetic layer. The output of the mixer is passed to a frequency discriminator which produces a D.C. output proportional to the 1Kc/s beat frequency and, superimposed thereon, 2c/s A.C. signal of amplitude proportional to the layer thickness. The D.C. signal is fed back to an automatic frequency control system in the valve oscillator thus producting a constant value for the mean beat frequency so that the frequency discriminator operates on the linear part of its characteristic. The A.C. component is measured either by rectifying it or, as shown, by using a synchronised sampling switch as a rectifier. The output of the sampling switch is supplied to a meter and recorder, the meter being biased by an adjustable coating weight selector so that the meter gives a zero reading for the desired value. The output of the device is independent of the velocity of the film through the apparatus and can be further stabilized by using a crystal to control the frequency of one of the oscillators. The transistor oscillator is preferably mounted in a metal box. Suitable valve and transistor circuits are described.
