✨ Key Features
✔ Wide Measurement Range
Measures from matte to high-gloss surfaces (0–1000 GU) — suitable for products with very high reflectivity.
✔ High Precision (Grade 1 Performance)
Instrument accuracy and repeatability meet Grade 1 gloss meter standards, qualifying for professional and quality-critical applications.
✔ Easy & Intelligent Operation
Normal mode: fast one-touch measurements — place on surface and read result.
QC mode: lets operators set upper and lower limits for quick pass/fail quality checks.
✔ Real-Time Statistics
Displays real-time values, max/min/average, standard deviation for up to 99 readings (more with PC software).
✔ Temperature Compensation
Built-in temperature compensation improves stability and reduces drift over long-term usage.
✔ Portable & Durable
Slim, compact design, aluminum shell — durable and easy to carry.
💻 PC Connectivity & Software
Connects via USB to a Windows PC.
PC software allows:
• Real-time online measurement
