A number of measuring devices are used to assess the performance and condition of different procedures, allowing the operator or quality control to obtain feedback on the condition of the work or equipment operations.
Today we represent Elcometer's portfolio of measuring instruments and the most common instruments we offer are:
Monitoring climatic conditions, such as temperature, relative humidity, dew point and humidity, is often essential for successful coating application and is critical to the quality and performance of the coated product.
The correct paint or coating thickness is an important parameter for surface treatment. The strength and durability of the paint surface is based on the correct application of this system, following the specification sheet of the paint manufacturer. Each layer, from the primer to the topcoat and the individual intermediate layers, is precisely defined with minimum and maximum coating thicknesses.
The right gloss level has a big impact on both the product and its colour. The quality of a painted surface is often assessed by measuring gloss and tone.
The adhesion strength of paint and coatings is crucial to enable the material to perform its basic functions of protection and decoration. Coating strength testing in the paints and coatings industry is necessary to ensure the quality and durability of products.
To achieve a good finish, the correct viscosity of the materials as specified by the manufacturer must be ensured. A variety of simple as well as more sophisticated devices are available to measure this.
