fineness of grind & laboratory grinders

Elcometer Home Page

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 take special care in their 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.
