Ink Double Groove Fineness Gauge

The ink double-channel fineness gauge uses two V-shaped groove scrapers to spread the ink sample into a wedge-shaped film. By observing the scale corresponding to the position where particles become visible, it measures the dispersion degree of pigment or filler particles. It is used to control grinding fineness during the production of inks and coatings, ensuring product uniformity and printability.
Selection
When selecting, consider that the measurement range should cover common fineness levels of 0–50 μm. The groove should be made of wear-resistant stainless steel with clear and durable scale markings. The scraper must be flat and free from deformation, ensuring easy operation. Based on the types of samples tested daily, determine whether anti-corrosion treatment is necessary, and verify the presence of the metrological verification mark.
