The PICOGLOSS 560 MC is one of
the smallest portable gloss-measuring devices ever
designed. It is smaller than a PC mouse and therefore
ideal for on-site use. The universal 60° measuring
geometry and the automatic change-over of mirror-gloss
make this instrument suitable for a wide range of
applications.
Because of the compact
dimensions of the measuring instrument and the measuring
aperture gloss measurements can be carried out without
difficulty even on small or narrow specimens as well as
in places which are not easily accessible..

The mandrel bending test is a commonly used testing method for assessing the flexibility and the adhesion properties of coatings when these are subjected to bending stresses.
Ferrous and non-ferrous metals
are attacked continuously by humidity, acids, solutions,
gases etc. It is therefore vitally important to choose
the correct surface protection. There are many materials
and qualities on the market and their properties must be
properly assessed. Materials intended to prevent
corrosion must be tested if failures are to be avoided.
Furthermore the comparative quality control during
production is of increasing importance.
The best known processes employ spray vapour tests using
various salt solutions as well as condensation water
climates..
Rapid determination of the viscosity of any type of fluid, as for instance paint, varnish, wet enamel, photogravure ink, dye and lacquer for leather, oil, fat, foodstuff etc. Particularly suit-able in the workshop.
CUPTIMER 243 T (REFERENCE CLASS)Mobile measuring station for exact determination of the flow time (incl. adapter for ISO, ASTM and DIN flow cups, spirit level and plug-in supply unit)
The gloss on a surface is assessed by its reflection properties.
Although the eye also considers the mirror (picture) effect gloss remains essentially a matter of reflection. The reflection effect will depend on the angle at which the surface is viewed. To measure gloss using a so-called gloss scale, reflected light applied at specified angles is measured.
The range of categories of gloss has been divided into high gloss, medium gloss and matt and for each of these different measuring geometries have become established. The measured gloss is expressed by a number in the relevant category, thus providing an accepted method of communication.
In the field of coating technology the concept of hardness generally refers to scratch resistance.
To call this hardness is not perhaps quite correct use of language but it has historically been used in this way and is well established. Fundamentally it concerns the properties of the coating material to withstand physical influences so as to leave no evidence on the coating.
for measuring the thickness of
organic coatings on all base materials using the wedge
cut principle, with microscope to be turned and moved
sideways for measurements on ellipsoidal holes on
lightly curved surfaces.

The TINT TESTER 527, has been developed especially for brightness measurement of dark, uncured coatings such as paste pigment applications on flat surfaces, to determine the tinting strength according to ASTM D 3265 and ASTM D 2745.
Test Panel Spraying Applicator Type 1.2 AUTOSPRAY 481
This modern and inexpensive spray applicator for test panels has been designed for reproducible application of coating substances onto various substrates.
Wet Abrasion (Washability and Scrub Resistance) Tester 494
The Washability and Scrubbing Resistance Tester, Model 494, is mainly intended to assess the ability of paints (especially plastic dispersion types) to be cleaned, washed and scrubbed.
A hardened and ground double wheel with an eccentric cam in the centre is rolled over a newly applied film. The wetting line on the centre cam is read on a scale as wet film thickness.
