In automotive, coatings, furniture, and printing, gloss defines product quality. Single-angle meters fail to handle diverse surfaces—from high-gloss metal to matte plastics. The SKZ68 Three-Angle Gloss Meter (20°/60°/85°) solves this with precision, multi-angle flexibility, and professional features, making it essential for QC teams, R&D engineers, and production managers. It adapts to all gloss scenarios, ensuring reliable results that meet global standards.
Core Selling Points: Precision, Three-Angle Design, Professionalism
The SKZ68’s key strengths:
Precision: High-quality optics and calibration minimize errors for repeatable results.
Three-Angle Versatility: 20°/60°/85° cover all surface types—no need for multiple tools.
Professional Reliability: Features like data storage and PC integration meet industrial QC/R&D needs.
Key Feature 1: Tailored Measurement Ranges
Each angle targets specific gloss levels:
20° (0-2000Gu): For ultra-high-gloss surfaces (polished steel, automotive coatings) – captures reflective materials critical for luxury goods.
60° (0-1000Gu): Universal for medium-gloss items (paints, packaging, wood) – ideal for daily QC.
85° (0-160Gu): For low-gloss/matte surfaces (textured plastics, matte paints) – detects subtle differences in flat finishes.
These ranges replace 2-3 single-angle meters, cutting costs and simplifying tool management.
Key Feature 2: Flexible Measurement Modes
Five modes adapt to workflows:
Automatic: Measures all three angles with one press (fast production lines).
Manual: Select a single angle (targeted R&D tests).
Single/Mean: Spot checks or averaged readings (reduces random errors).
Combination: Pair angles (e.g., 20°+85°) for complex surfaces.
Max/Min Display: Flags batch variations (e.g., plastic part gloss limits).
Modes eliminate manual work, streamlining processes and reducing errors.
Key Feature 3: 50,000-Group Data Storage
Traceability matters for regulated industries. The SKZ68 stores 50,000 entries (timestamp, angle, gloss value, mode) – enough for months of data. Benefits:
QC managers track trends (e.g., gloss changes after paint batches).
Auditors verify ISO 2813 compliance.
Remote teams store data without laptops, transferring later.
Key Feature 4: PC Software Integration
USB-connected software turns data into insights:
Organize: Import into Excel to sort by product/batch.
Report: Generate graphs (gloss trends) for stakeholders.
Optimize: Fix issues (e.g., adjust paint formulation if 85° readings are low).
This bridges data collection and process improvement.
Who Benefits?
Industries where gloss consistency matters:
Automotive: Test paint finishes.
Coatings/Paints: Ensure batch consistency.
Furniture: Verify wood/laminate finishes.
Printing/Packaging: Check label/packaging gloss.
Electronics: Test non-reflective casings.
Small factories cut costs; large enterprises ensure global QC consistency.
