Kraft Paper Smoothness Measurement Instrument

Kraft paper smoothness tester evaluates surface flatness by measuring the air leakage rate between the paper surface and a standard pressure head. Its principle is based on the negative correlation between airflow resistance and contact area. The instrument functions to quantify the printability of paper and is applied in quality control of packaging materials and adjustments to production processes.
Selection
When selecting, focus on the measurement range covering the specifications of the samples to be tested, adopt internationally standardized testing methods, and verify the validity of the instrument calibration certificate. Consider the compatibility between the sample clamping method and the material to be measured, check the sealing performance indicators of the gas path system, and confirm that the data output interface is compatible with the existing system.
