Description:

Gann Type Paper Moisture Meter is an electrical resistance type digital moisture meter. It calculates on the basis of mass of water/ mass of solids. Since the electrical conductivity of paper is considerably affected not only by its moisture content, but also by the paper temperature and various substances contained in the paper, it is necessary to take these influences into consideration in the design of the moisture meters to ensure accurate readings.

Board and Corrugated. The hands close naturally around the ergonomic form of the housing so that the pins on the end of instrument can be pressed into the material to be measured. The thin pins Paper Board and Corrugated Board

Effect of moisture on properties :

Higher GSM and lower Bursting Strength due to higher moisture. Tensile Strength decreases with increasing % RH. The strength of bonds between fibers is reduced. Tensile Stretch increases with increasing % RH. Elmendorf Tear Strength increases with increasing % RH. This is because fibers are more likely to pull out of the structure due to reduced bonding strength. More work needs to be done to complete the tear. Tensile Stiffness decreases with increasing % RH.

Salient Features:

• Handy, quick pocketed sized moisture meter for speedy single or series measurement.
• Completely automatic instrument setting.
• No separate electrodes or leads required.
• Also suitable to measure wood and normal gypsum & mixed plaster

Description:

Quadrant Scale is intended for measuring the basis weight GSM of paper and other sheet materials by weighing a small test sample with given dimensions. Scales are calibrated to precision dead weights. This accuracy is maintained as long as the pendulum returns its original form and is kept free from corrosion, distortion, or other causes, which may affect its weight and balance.

GSM is known as Grammage per square meter, which is an important factor in Paper and Packaging industry for measurement. GSM Scale is used to measure the GSM of paper through the weight of paper. Body of GSM Scale is made up of stainless steel. There is a pendulum attached in GSM Scale which is used to calculate the GSM of paper when hanger moves along with it. The accuracy of weighing paper should be proper and the accuracy depends upon the movement of pendulum. This accuracy is maintained as long as pendulum achieved its final position. GSM Scale has tabular pendulum. The gravity provides good stability and reliability to GSM scale. In single graduate scale, scale selects only one template.

Calibration of GSM Scale should be done by precision dead weight. Generally we used 0-250GSM Scale. So we take 20 x 25mm template to measure the GSM of paper. GSM Scale is calibrated to measure the GSM of 20 x 25mm sized templates.Sample of paper taken from the templates placed in the hanger of GSM Scale and then we released the hanger along with pendulum. When pendulum stops moving and become constant then this is the GSM of paper. 0-500 GSM Scale is not used generally but it can use for measuring the GSM of Kraft paper, whose thickness is more than average writing printing paper. The whole process of GSM Scale is done manually.Accuracy of GSM Scale should keep free from corrosion, distortion and other reasons which affect the accuracy of weight.

This instrument is used for measuring the basis weight (GSM of paper) and other sheet materials by weighing a small test sample with given dimensions. Scales are calibrated to precision dead weights. This accuracy is maintained as long as the pendulum returns to its original form and is kept free from corrosion, distortion or other causes which may affect its weight and balance.

Description:

The first step towards the testing of any physical property of material is preparing its test sample. The accuracy and precision in the test result also depends on the efficiency in the preparation of the test samples. For that, we require the different cutters to facilitate the testing and prepare the quick and sharp samples. Sometimes problems with these cutters are also associated. Such as, it doesn’t work properly after the preparation of some samples only or the blade of cutter loses its sharpness. But Pap-Tech Engineers’ Precision Triple Sheer Cutter without any inadequacy or glitch gives you the test sample with perfect dimensions.
