75 Degree Gloss Meter for Coated Paperboard

Portable glossmeter that measures specular gloss of coated board and printed cartons at 75 degrees. Used by converters and board makers to check coating, varnish and UV lacquer finish consistency.

Specification

The meter measures the proportion of light reflected at 75 degrees from a coated board surface against a calibrated black glass reference. High-gloss cartons for cosmetics and confectionery need tight control, and this instrument allows quick spot checks at press side. Readings are shown in gloss units with statistical averaging.
