The new intelligence in gloss measurement
The micro-gloss has been the unsurpassed industry standard in gloss measurement for many years. It is the only glossmeter combining highest accuracy, ease-of-use and multiple functionality – essential for today`s testing requirements.

Brilliant design and easy-to-use
Ergonomics and easy handling were the main focus for the design.
The micro-gloss is not too large and not too small – it feels just right in your hand. The scroll wheel operation, multilingual display and easy to navigate menu make gloss measurement easier than ever before.



Auto diagnosis:
Standard OK – Calibration OK
Accurate readings require reliable calibration. The gloss meter and calibration holder make a perfect couple: the calibration standard is always protected in the holder of the micro-gloss.
Unique is the intelligent auto diagnosis of the gloss meter which guarantees long-term stable calibration and tells you when to calibrate. It even checks whether the standard is clean. Operator friendly. Safe.



Various measurement modes for efficient QC
Different tasks require different tools. The easy to turn scroll wheel of the glossmeter quickly shows you all needed functions – even without a PC:

Check uniformity on the sample?
→ Continuous mode. With Min. and Max.
Compare the gloss difference to the target?
→ Difference mode. With Pass/Fail.
Average several readings per panel?
→ Statistic mode. With all statistical data.
Number of readings per sample are selectable.
Or just quickly check the gloss of a few samples?
The Basic mode is your tool.




Fast and professional documentation
Every measurement series can be saved in the glossmeter under its own name. Input of sample names can be done quickly with the scroll wheel.
The included easy-link software allows direct data transfer to Excel® with your results immediately shown in a professional QC-report.



Data transfer with cable or wireless
Now data can be sent to your PC via USB-interface or Bluetooth® wireless technology. The wireless connection transfers data from the glossmeter within a distance of 10 meters (33 feet).

Automotive interior design is becoming more and more important in purchasing decision. A variety of materials, from leather to plastics, are used and need to be harmonized. Additionally, surface structures vary from large grains to fine stipples, usually with very low gloss. In order to guarantee a uniform look among the various parts very tight tolerances are specified.

As a starting point master standard plaques are usually manufactured with flat and several grained areas. These are sent to parts suppliers as their target to achieve with actual production parts.
As the master plaques and final parts are often made of different materials the suppliers work closely with the car maker. In the end final approval is given on a production part. This production part now becomes the standard for the supplier.

Instead of working with absolute gloss numbers, supplier production QC needs to be based on the signed-off part where only the differences are checked with the glossmeter. This procedure eliminates the reproducibility error as gloss is measured relatively on the same type of material and same surface.

micro-gloss S family
Only testing instruments with excellent precision will be able to objectively control production. The new micro-gloss S family offers improved performance for 60° gloss in the critical low gloss range (0-10 GU). This excellent accuracy can be guaranteed due to our patented calibration procedure in the production of the glossmeters.
