3 Quality Control for Paint and Plastic

4 BYK-Gardner is setting standards micro-gloss the leader in gloss measurement

5 Quality is our Business: micro-gloss Production Automatic calibration on high low gloss tiles Master standards traceable to BAM / NRC Long-term drift check Controlled operating conditions Excellent performance

6 Surface quality Gloss Distinctness of Image Haze Orange Peel Color Effect

7 Reflection Incident light Diffuse Reflection Specular Reflection (= Gloss)

8 Glossmeter Design α1 ± 0.1 α2 ± 0.1 e.g. Receptor aperture 20 : 1.8 ± 0.05

9 Defined Angles of Illumination ~ 10 x 10 mm

10 Defined Angles of Illumination ~ 9 x15 mm

11 Defined Angles of Illumination ~ 5 x 38 mm

12 Angles of Illumination GU Low Gloss Semi Gloss High Gloss increasing gloss perception

13 Recommended Geometries Gloss level Semi gloss High gloss Low gloss 60 value 10 to 70 units > 70 units < 10 units Recommended geometry 60 geometry 20 geometry 85 geometry

14 GU UV-B Weathering Test PUR Coil-Coating System Start 100 h 200 h 250 h Panel A / 60 Panel B / 60 Panel A / 20 Panel B / 20

15 micro-gloss save and reliable measurements new auto diagnosis in the holder checks calibration... tells you when to calibrate checks whether the standard is clean Autodiagnosis OK standard and optics are always protected in the holder

16 micro-gloss textured surfaces e.g. 60

17 NEW micro-gloss Intelligent gloss measurement with smart communication

18 New micro-gloss with small aperture: micro-gloss XS 60 Gloss measurement According to international standards Opening: 9.2 mm x 2 mm Spot size : 4.0 mm x 2 mm Ideal for small parts and components
