Elcometer 2060 ISO Groove Depth Checker

The accuracy of fineness gauges may be impaired after a certain time of use. The ISO standard recommends the depth is checked. A digital comparator with a tapering point is fitted onto a rule with a central V-shaped opening and a contact edge bevelled to an angle of 60°, with thermal insulation on its upper surfaces. The instrument is reset to zero beforehand on a reference surface, positioned perpendicular to the groove and provides an accurate measurement of the depth of the groove at the place being checked. Readings in microns.

Fineness of grind
From the development of coatings and inks in the laboratory to testing during the production process, quick and precise measurement of the particle size of the material - be it pigments or other similar materials - is one of the essential measurement techniques required for reliable and repeatable results.

Fineness of grind gauges comprise of stainless steel blocks in which either one or two channels are precision ground in a uniformly increasing depth from zero at one end to a specified depth at the other, identified by the scale on the gauge.

Elcometer takes special care in its manufacturing to ensure that the highest level of precision and quality is maintained for all their gauges in order to comply with the requirements of the industries where the grinding process is involved, particularly in the fields of wet paints and powder, varnishes, printing inks and the cosmetics industry.
