The Gloss Meter - Micro-Gloss has been the unsurpassed industry standard in gloss measurement for many years. It is the only gloss meter combining the highest accuracy, ease-of-use and multiple functionality - essential for today`s testing requirements. In addition, the smart-chart software is the ideal tool for smart communication with professional documentation and efficient data analysis.
Ergonomics and easy handling were the main focus for the design. The micro-gloss is not too large and not too small - it feels just right in your hand. The scroll wheel operation and new color display with an easy-to-navigate menu make gloss measurement easier than ever before.
Accurate readings require reliable calibration. The gloss meter and calibration holder make a perfect couple – the calibration standard is always protected in the holder of the micro-gloss. The intelligent auto diagnosis of the gloss meter is a unique feature which guarantees long-term calibration stability and tells you when to calibrate. It even checks whether the standard is clean, operator friendly and safe.
With the micro-gloss gloss meter you can measure any material - paints, plastics or brightened metals. Its expanded range measures from very matte to mirror like reflection of up to 2000 gloss units, automatically and without additional calibration. Always reliable results – according to international standards.
The micro-gloss's accuracy and reliability have been demonstrated by thousands of users.
Depending on the season and the temperature variations between day and night shifts or production and the lab, the micro-gloss remains consistent, providing you with reliable results.
Consistent gloss is an indicator of high quality, yet it poses a challenge for a multi-component product. The exceptional performance of the micro-gloss family enables the achievement of even the most stringent tolerances.
The aim is to achieve the target value within a defined tolerance. The micro-gloss ensures consistent results within a 0.1 GU range, meaning that measured gloss differences accurately represent real product variations.
Automatic Diagnosis
The production environment is frequently harsh and dusty, potentially impacting your glossmeter's performance as dust can accumulate on its lenses. The micro-gloss features an 'auto-diagnosis' function that assesses the instrument's actual performance and provides immediate feedback:
The auto-diagnosis serves as your assurance for dependable measurement data.
Micro TRI Gloss
High gloss, semi-gloss, matte - which geometry is best? The answer is simple: micro-TRI-gloss.
micro-TRI-gloss detects gloss variations under the correct angle. International standards specify three geometries for measuring surfaces ranging from matte to high gloss. With micro-TRI-gloss, you always have the appropriate angle available and can quickly identify quality differences:
Gloss and Thickness Measurement
An efficient coating process should minimize the use of paint while meeting the quality standards set by the customer. Gloss and film thickness serve as crucial quality control criteria for coatings.
The micro-TRI-gloss µ measures both parameters at the same location and in just one second. This not only saves time but is also ideal for on-site inspections - you only need to carry one instrument.
It simultaneously displays results at 20°, 60°, and 85° angles, covering high-gloss to matte coatings. Additionally, it features a dual film thickness sensor for measuring thickness on both steel and aluminum.
Micro Gloss XS
Frequently, small components are incorporated into larger ones, and consistent gloss is essential. The micro-gloss XS is just as dependable as its larger counterparts.
Despite its ultra-compact measuring area of 2x4 mm, the readings match those of the micro-gloss 60°. There is even an S-class model available for superior performance on matte finishes.
Micro Gloss Robotic
A stable, well-running process is the key to achieving consistent and uniform quality, and this can only be attained with high sampling rates. The micro-gloss robotic is your solution for INDUSTRY 4.0.
It offers both contact gloss measurement for any material and non-contact gloss measurement, which is perfect for continuous production lines or surfaces prone to scratching.
The glossmeter can either be fixed while a robot moves the sample to the instrument, or it can be integrated into measuring cells, such as an XY-table. Gloss measurements are always taken at the same spot with no operator influence, ensuring repeatable positioning and reliable results.
