micro-gloss 60° robotic
Gloss meter 60° for automated measurement
- Single angle 60°
- For any material: paint, plastic or even metals
- Measuring area 9 x 15 mm
Features
A stable running process is the key for uniform and consistent quality. The new micro-gloss robotic allows automatic appearance control. With the robust fixture it can be integrated into measuring systems like a xy-table. Thus, measurements are taken always on the same sample area, which ensures repeatable positioning and reliable results.
- Intelligent gloss measurement with smart communication
- Excellent repeatability and inter-instrument agreement guaranteed
- Intelligent auto diagnosis guarantees always accurate readings
- Brilliant color display easy to read - easy to use
- Statistics, Pass/Fail and Memory - ideal for QC and checks in the field
- Continuous mode to check uniformity over large areas

Gloss Measurement
Gloss measurement is an important factor in quality control to guarantee a consistent and uniform gloss of any product. The visual perception is depending on the observer, illumination and viewing conditions as well as on material and product properties. In order to measure gloss objectively instrumental measurement is performed with a gloss meter. Dependent on the gloss level and the application different geometries and functions are needed. The following article reviews visual perception of gloss, measurement principle of a gloss meter, when to use which measurement geometry and gives practical hints for special applications and how to deal with limitations.
