Avoid time-consuming, costly printing problems with the
Developed from Dr. John Parker’s
original method, the Parker Print-Surf
is a microprocessor-controlled
instrument, which performs high
speed, precision measurements of
paper surface roughness under
conditions that simulate those
encountered during the printing process.
The specimen is clamped between a
precision engineered measuring head and
a specially designed backing assembly. The resistance to airflow is
measured and converted to a mean roughness value in
micrometers.
In its latest form the instrument offers extended ranges of clamp
pressure and measurement capability, together with a dual-head
option for increased testing efficiency. This versatile instrument
provides the information you need to avoid time-consuming, costly
printing problems.
