YG268: Professional Tri-angle Gloss Meter for Industrial Quality Control
The YG268 gloss meter by 3nh is a precision instrument specifically designed to deliver accurate and reliable gloss measurements across a wide range of materials. Developed in accordance with international standards ISO 2813, ASTM D523, and GB/T 9754, this tri-angle model allows gloss evaluation at three distinct angles—20°, 60°, and 85°—ensuring optimal analysis regardless of surface type.
Its ergonomic and sleek design makes it easy to handle, even in demanding work environments. With automatic calibration, the YG268 guarantees consistent reliability without the need for frequent manual adjustment. It also meets the metrological requirements of the Chinese JJG696 standard, confirming its high precision and compliance with rigorous quality control protocols.
The YG268 offers an ultra-fast measurement time of just 0.5 seconds, with a minimum division of 0.1 GU, allowing for the precise detection of gloss variation. It features excellent repeatability, with a tolerance of ±0.2 GU for measurements up to 100 GU, and ±0.2% GU beyond. The 2.3-inch black-and-white display ensures perfect readability, even in low-light environments.
In terms of memory, the device can store up to 35,000 data points, organized across various modes (Basic, Statistics, Continuous, and QC), adapting to professional workflow needs. The included GQC6 Quality control software enables test report editing and data management for complete analytical capability.
Power supply options include either a dry battery, offering around 10,000 measurements, or USB charging. The YG268 also features an auto power-off function, adjustable between 30 and 120 seconds after the last operation, to conserve energy. Compact and lightweight (300 g), it is ideal for both laboratory and on-site inspections.
This gloss meter is compatible with numerous industrial sectors, including automotive, plastics, leather, coatings, stone, and metals. It is an essential tool for ensuring the visual quality of finished products.
