ZGM 1120 - Series 20°/60°/85°

Series of gloss meter ZGM 1120

20°/60°/85° for gloss level measurement on coat, plastics, metals and coated printed products

Gloss meter as one-, two-, three-angle measuring instrument incl. GlossTools software. Only operating with a USB connection

The new generation of portable precision-gloss meter with smallest dimensions in order to determine all gloss levels of various surfaces from matt to high glossy in all sectors of industry, even in the smallest space. These are the first gloss measuring sensors that directly transfer the measuring data to the PC or laptop. For the various requirements of the production and the high demands of the lab operation. The manufacturerer calibration certificate is due to DIN ISO 17025.

Available instruments:

• 1-angle: ZGM 1120.2 with 20º angle of measurement, measuring surface 20º = 4,2 x 2 mm
• 2-angles: ZGM 1120.26 with 20º/60º angle of measurement, measuring surface 20º = 4,2 x 2 mm, 60º = 4,7 x 2 mm
• 3-angles: ZGM 1120.268 with 20º/60º/85º angle of measurement, measuring surface 20º = 4,2 x 2 mm, 60º = 4,7 x 2 mm, 85º = 15 x 2 mm
• All units are available with calibration of 1 mm distance for contact free measurement
• All units are available with an inspection window for exact positioning of the instrument on the probe

Functional survey:

• energy supply by USB-connection of PC/laptops
• if required you will be forced automatically to do a calibration
• automatic standard recognition
• measuring system with high longtime stability guarantees constant measuring accuracy and reliable measuring results by means of self-diagnosis all deviations automatically be indicated
• the practical calibration unit always protects optic and standard
• single measurements, multi-measurements, automate measuring rows, customer specific measuring rows and continuous measurements (minimum measurement interval 1.5 s) are possible
• ongoing gloss statistics-calculations (average, standard deviation, mx, min)
• definition of limit and reference value for the values of gloss, so the failed/passed information results
• the measuring data can be administrated by the GlossTools software
• it can respectively be transmitted into your data set or be exported to Microsoft
• Excel
• GlossTools software can convert the inspection record into PDF-format
• GlossTools software can save endless measurements, the capacity is just limited by the local hardware
• LED-illuminations with long service life
• supplied in a handy case for an optimal protection, robust aluminum design, high value quality, smallest dimensions and light, available as one- and two-angle execution
• operator guidance in several languages: German, English, French, Swedish and Spanish, on request also in other languages
• intelligent and user-friendly, starting with the calibration over to the whole measuring process up to the evaluation
• useable on smallest surfaces and in limited areas, also useable on curves
• customer solutions with a special three-point mounting for measuring of curves and no plane surfaces
• stray light compensation makes exact measurements on transparent surfaces possible
• easy handling, operating and displaying with the GlossTools software directly over PC or laptop
• several geometries can be displayed at the same time
• data set can be exported to Excel
• implements comply with the norms : ASTMC346, ASTMD523, ASTMD2457, BS3900, DINENISO2813, DIN67530, ENISO7668
