Transmission Hazemeter
Novo-Haze TX
The Novo-Haze TX Transmission Hazemeter offers fast and accurate measurement of the optical quality of plastic films and other transparent materials. This instrument measures total transmission and haze according to ASTM D1003 (CIE C), the most important standard used in most QA applications.

Rhopoint IQ Flex 20
Rhopoint IQ Flex 20Conventional gloss instruments are suited to large flat areas and test, as curved surfaces cause errors. The small footprint of the IQ FLEX 20 makes it much more effective on curved surfaces than a conventional glossmeter; its compact size and shape also allows access to difficult to reach areas.

Film Shrink Tester
The Hanatek FST Film Shrink Tester is used to measure the effect of temperature on plastic films. The application of heat causes certain plastic films to rapidly contract; this effect can be used to seal and pack many items from food to consumer goods. The shrink effect is due to internal forces locked into the film during manufacture being released by heating, it is also known as linear thermal shrink or free shrink. The amount of shrinkage is dependent on the film type, thickness and sealing temperature. Testing the percentage shrink of a film ensures that it is suitable for a particular packaging application and establishes the correct temperature for that application.

Carton Force Analyser
CFA
By measuring the stiffness of the substrate and crease bending resistance the user can optimise cartons for faster running and packaging speeds. The instrument allows individual creases to be analysed identifying problem areas in packaging design or manufacture. Industry research indicates that the packaging speeds of pre-glued skillets is governed by the energy required to open creases. The Hanatek CFA is the first instrument to isolate and accurately measure this key parameter The instrument measures: Bending resistance, bending moment, board stiffness, crease recovery stiffness, crease folding force, crease opening force.

Rhopoint IQ 20/60/85
A6000-011
The Rhopoint IQ quantifies surface quality problems that are invisible to a standard glossmeter and profiles how light is reflected from a surface. In one button click, the instrument measures gloss, haze, DOI (orange peel), RIQ and RSPEC making it the ideal choice for high gloss applications

Rub Tester and Abrasion Tester
RT4
This comparative test works by abrading a printed sample against a reference material under known conditions. The results can be used to identify alternative substrates, better ink and coating formulations or the suitability of finished cartons, films or printed books, magazines and promotional materials.
