| Measurement geometry | Standard measurement angles: ► 20°: for high-gloss surfaces A 20° gloss sensor is used if gloss grades >70GU are to be determined. That is, if the gloss grade measured with a 60° gloss meter is >70GU, a 20° gloss sensor is used. ► 45°: TAPPI standard (paper industry) for glossy surfaces ► 60°: for semi-gloss surfaces A 60° gloss sensor is used if gloss grades >10GU and <70GU are to be determined. This variant is an "all-rounder". The 60° gloss sensor is therefore standard for most applications. ► 75°: TAPPI standard (paper industry) for matt surfaces ► 85°: for matt surfaces An 85° gloss sensor is used when gloss grades <10GU are to be determined. That is, if the gloss grade measured with a 60° gloss meter is <10GU, an 85° gloss sensor is used. [GU = Gloss Unit] |
