DIN Viscosity Cup Paint ViscoMeter

The DIN viscosity cup determines viscosity by measuring the time it takes for the coating to flow out of a standard orifice. After immersing the cup into the coating and lifting it, the time until the cup is completely emptied is recorded; a longer time indicates higher viscosity. It is used for on-site rapid testing of the fluidity of coatings and inks to ensure consistent consistency during application.
Selection
Select the corresponding numbered cup based on the viscosity range of the material being tested. Consider the particle size of the material to avoid clogging the flow hole. Compare the test conditions required by industry standards. Temperature control measures are necessary to account for environmental temperature effects. Maintain the flow time within the range of 20-100 seconds to ensure accuracy.
