What is GlossSmeter?
GLOSSSMETER is a tool used to quantify shiny or gloss of the surface. This device measures a mirror reflection or the amount of light reflecting from the surface. GlossSmeter relies on shiny units (GU) to express the degree of gloss and gloss. This unit is based on reference measurement with black glass, which has GU 100. The higher the value, the higher the surface gloss measured, with values in possible materials with high gloss.
The average glossary fits into the palm and is a comparable size of the calculation or smartphone. It includes a light source that can be applied to the surface during the measurement and creates a solid lighting condition. GLOSSSMETER also contains an optical sensor that is used to calculate the mirror reflection. The screen screen provides GU surface. Different glossmetry are designed for specific projects and applications and may not be suitable for all tasks.
When measuring the surface, the angle of the glossmemeter can significantly affect the values. For surfaces with high forestKem should be held by the meter at a shallow angle to the material. Medium glossy finishes require a medium angle, generally between 50 and 70 degrees. Low -gloss applications generally provide the highest level of accuracy when the meter is held at a sharp angle to the surface. Metals tend to be less dependent on the angle than other materials and some products such as plastic or vinyl have strong lighting angles specific to the industry.
These tools can be used to measure everything from automotive surfaces to furniture. They can also be applied to print and paper as well as plastic or special coatings. GLOSSSMETER can also be used to measure the gloss of building materials and completion within the completed construction project.
For a basic example of glossamer and lamb, consider projects of marble or stone floors. These surfaces are often polished to a high glossy shine to bring their natural color and beauty. This l meter lFrom using the newly installed marble floors to test to see if it meets the project specification. It can also be used to measure the gloss on the existing stone floor to show homeowners the potential benefits of refining or renewing the floor. When completing the renewal after completing the renewal of the second glossmeter reading, the supplier may provide measurable data to improve gloss or gloss floor.
