Welding gauges is the essential that for inspection. Most of the weld gauges sold in the market can read dimension of a weld to the accuracy of 0.5mm. The user more often has to estimate or guess the accuracy rather than rely on the actual reading shown on the gauge. Based on welding standard or code of practice, the border of acceptance and rejection of the weld requires the accuracy of 0.1mm. For example weld reinforcement > 2.4mm rejected, if< 2.4mm passed.

Presently, the reading on the weld size, weld joint preparation, angular measurement, size of imperfection or defects could not be recorded in higher precision because the absence of such instrument.
