Description
Product overview
Modular system
Key features
Applications & benefits
Technical characteristics / specifications
- Fully characterise all aspects of appearance perception – measures the visual qualities that drive perceived surface quality and consumer appeal.
- Modular instrument platform comprising dedicated measurement modules for Surface Brilliance, Texture, Effect Finish, Polishing Quality, Cross-cut Adhesion and Boring (coating thickness).
- Designed for flexible deployment: in-laboratory, portable in-field, inline in production or integrated into a Cobot/robot measurement cell.
- Accepts flat surfaces, curved parts and small surface areas; supports both contact (accessory-based) and non-contact measurement modes.
Modular system
- Surface Brilliance: perception metrics describing reflectivity and visual quality of high-gloss surfaces.
- Texture: analyses surface texture and topography to support consistent tactile and visual properties.
- Effect Finish: quantifies sparkle and coarseness of effect-pigmented coatings.
- Polishing Quality: objective detection and quantification of scratches, holograms and swirls on high-gloss surfaces.
- Cross-cut Adhesion: replaces subjective adhesion grading with reproducible imaging measurement to quantify coating durability.
- Boring (Boring Thickness): destructive coating thickness measurement using a coating drill (Säberg-type) to determine total and layer thicknesses in multi-coat systems.
Key features
- Dual-camera optical system: an observer camera for colour-correct surface imaging and a gloss camera that acquires HDR images to characterise multiple gloss metrics.
- Integrated, controlled illumination: specular (0°) gloss source, dedicated 60° gloss illumination, 10° spot light, 15° line/“wave” light, and 6× 45° circumferential white LEDs for sparkle, texture and photometric-stereo style capture.
- Upside-down operation and interchangeable measurement apertures to place samples directly onto the aperture for improved handling of small/delicate parts and precise targeting of small or curved areas.
- Manual measurement button for quick handheld readings and an ergonomic design suitable for benchtop or in-hand use.
- Compatibility with accessories such as small spot masks, curved surface adaptors and custom jigs for repeatable measurement on complex parts.
- Modular deployment: tablet-connected portable inspection, laboratory PC operation, or in-line/non-contact integration with automation or cobot cells for high-throughput or in-process QC.
- Data capture, storage and analysis via dedicated software for appearance analysis; supports structured databases for local, network or cloud storage and process optimisation.
- Supports both contact-based and non-contact measurement modes to match application and part geometry.
Applications & benefits
- Provides perception-correlated metrics that align closely with human visual judgement to set meaningful pass/fail criteria.
- Helps product designers and manufacturers optimise materials and processes to improve perceived quality and reduce costly rework.
- Enables consistent, objective QC across laboratory, shop-floor and automated production environments.
Technical characteristics / specifications
