Target Thickness
The principle of eddy current displacement measurement requires a minimum thickness for stable results.
This minimum thickness depends on the target material used and the sensor frequency.
The default system works at a carrier frequency of 1 MHz.

When measuring the path at variable temperatures, the minimum target thickness is three times the skin
depth.
