Ink Grinding Fineness Gauge

The ink flat grinder drives the grinding disc to rotate at a constant speed through a motor, causing the ink-coated sample to repeatedly rub against a standard substrate under fixed pressure. This process simulates surface wear on printed materials and is used to test physical properties such as ink adhesion and abrasion resistance. It is commonly employed in quality inspections at printing plants and in ink research and development.
Selection
When selecting, pay attention to the compatibility between the grinding disc material and the standards. The pressure adjustment range should cover the requirements of common printing substrates, and the rotational speed stability affects data repeatability. Additional features such as automatic counting and stopping can improve efficiency. Choose between manual or automatic models based on daily testing volume, and verify that the wear test area aligns with industry standards.
