SKZ68 20°/60°/85° Gloss Meter: Precision QC Tool for Industrial Finish Consistency

Nov 13, 2025

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.​
