Dry Time Meter

The drying time recorder determines the drying process by measuring changes in the physical state of the coating surface. Its principle involves recording the resistance changes when a needle tip scratches the coating or presses into the surface, which is divided into surface drying and through-drying stages. It is used for testing the drying performance of paints and inks, guiding production processes and controlling construction intervals.
Selection
Select contact or non-contact types based on the viscosity of the material being tested; choose a surface-dry timer or full-dry recorder according to the drying stage requirements; match the test probe material with the substrate characteristics; ensure the environmental temperature and humidity control functions align with laboratory conditions; and maintain calibration cycles that comply with industry standards.
