The shape size and installation size of these parts need to be inspected. Automobile gauge is an important gauge used to inspect whether automobile parts are qualified in the automobile industry. The automobile gauge is processed into a high-precision standard part with the same relevant dimensions as the real part, which is used to detect whether the relevant installation size on the matching part is qualified. For example, large-size gauges such as door gauges, engine cover gauges, and trunk cover gauges need to be made with the same installation structure and interface size as the real parts. These gauges are large in size, and if they are made of aluminum alloy, they will be heavy and difficult to install and use. Therefore, lightweight materials can be used to make gauges. In the prior art, carbon fiber-coated foam materials are used to make gauge models, as disclosed in Chinese Utility Model Patent Application No. CN2019100017715. However, this gauge needs to process installation interfaces on the carbon fiber model to install inserts in order to connect with the automobile master model gauge. Since carbon fiber is a non-metallic material, it has poor machinability, and the foam material coated on it also has poor machinability and strength.
