Overview
Ink absorbency tester (YANTE YT-YM20) is an instrument used to measure the absorption performance of standard inks by paper or Cardboard over a certain period of time and area. It mainly evaluates the acceptance of inks by paper and the absorption capacity of vehicles in inks. These characteristics directly affect the penetration of inks to paper, conjunctiva conditions, drying process and ink film surface performance.
Features
1. Adopt 4.3-inch color Touchscreen control, easy and intuitive to operate.
2. Precisely control the ink wiping speed, the opening area of the ink coating platen and the ink absorption time to ensure the accuracy of the test.
3. Compact design, Dimension is 535 * 308 * 280mm, light weight (≤ 33kg).
4. Low power consumption (90W), adapt to standard working environment (temperature 20 +/- 10 ℃, Humidity ≤ 85%).
Principle
The instrument applies standard inks to the surface of paper or Cardboard by inking the platen and measures the absorption performance of inks in the specified time (120 +/- 5 seconds) and area (20 +/- 10 square centimeters). This reflects the penetration process of inks from contact with the paper surface to complete curing, thus evaluating the ink acceptance and vehicle absorption capacity of the paper.
Applications
Paper production, Cardboard manufacturing, printing industry, mass inspection
Steps
1. Prepare sample paper or Cardboard.
2. Set test parameters through Touchscreen.
3. Apply standard inks using an ink-coated platen.
4. Start the instrument and automatically perform the ink absorption process (time 120 +/- 5 seconds).
5. Record and analyse absorption performance data.
Notice
• Ensure that the Operating Ambient Temperature is within the range of 20 +/- 10 ° C.
• Environmental humidity should not exceed 85%.
• Use standard power supply 220V +/- 10%, 50Hz.
• Measurement accuracy is regularly calibrated.
• Avoid damage to the ink platen during operation and keep it clean.
