Profile

• Closed, easy to use milling systems,
• Simple and secure handling,
• High material yield due to pneumatic press-out-system,
• Double walled milling container for cooling or heating,
• Cooling liquid is contained by self-sealing quick couplers,
• Mill base separation from bead charge by a sieve, integrated in the base of the container,

• For flat and curved surfaces (radius larger than 50 cm)
• Classical LW, SW and customer specific scales
• Expanded measurement range for semi gloss surfaces
• Structure spectrum to analyze appearance changes for optimization
• Dullness and DOI measurement independent of the paint system

• Excellent dispersion results in a short time
• Excellent product circulation via the dissolver disc and pump wheel
• Highly repeatable dispersion results
• Uniform average residence time
• Narrow particle size distribution
• Double walled grinding basket for cooling or heating
• No dead areas due to effective mill base circulation

With the scraper system ASC the scraper arm is not guided in a circle within the container as usual but the firmly clamped container is rotating and the scraper arm stands still. The scraper system ASC is available for all mixing and dispersion instruments which are fitted with an electrically adjustable compact stand H2L for container sizes 500, 1000, 2000, 3000 and 5000 ml.

• The DPM 100 Digital Microscope is a versatile device to measure paper appearance and evaluate physical structures of coated surfaces.
• High resolution CCD camera offering clear images
• USB cable connection for data transfer
• Auto gain function to adjust for lightness differences
• LED illumination for crisp images

• The BYK-Gardner stereo microscope is designed to work with the Automatic Cupping Tester instrument
• Illumination and brightness controls
• 3D-image with shadow free illumination
• 2x and 4x magnification

• The production dissolver DISPERMAT® SC is a multipurpose production dissolver for product quantities from 50 – 1800 l. 
• As an option the dissolver can be supplied in a vacuum or explosion proof design according to ATEX. 
• The explosion proof SC-Ex control corresponds to the scope of supply and services of the SC-control. 

• The gradient-oven is a drying oven that is used to evaluate the baking and drying behavior of liquid and powder coatings.
• It is also used for chemical etch resistance of auto topcoat systems
• Saves testing and evaluation time
• Provides a precise determination of coating properties versus temperature conditions

• To measure the absolute viscosity a rotational viscometer is used. 
• For non-Newtonian liquids a digital viscometer that applies a precise shear rate is needed. 
• For laboratory viscosity measurement BYK-Gardner offers a comprehensive line of rotational viscometers. 

• Measuring the film thickness immediately after coating the surface is important to control the spreading rate and the final dry film thickness.
• Applying too much paint is an added expense without improving the physical properties of the coating. 
• Wet film thickness should be monitored frequently to maintain an efficient coating process.
