Labtron Paper Testing Instruments requires air supply for automatic clamping, ensuring smooth and secure operation. These provide real-time pressure curve displays, allowing users to monitor pressure changes instantly. Their over-range reset function protects the sensor by automatically adjusting it in case of excessive readings. They measure ink absorption values, useful for quality control in printing processes. Our paper testing instruments measure WH Hunter whiteness, YI yellowness, and CIE whiteness for precise color and whiteness evaluations for various applications.

Labtron LWS-A12 is fully capable of measuring the whiteness of a wide range of powders. It is designed to handle fine particulate samples and provides reliable and accurate readings under normal testing conditions. Specifically, powders with particle sizes approximately between 120 µm and 200 µm fall well within the operational capability of the instrument. However, samples that are exceptionally coarse—such as those resembling the size of rice grains or beans—may not yield accurate readings and are generally not recommended for whiteness measurement using this device.
Yes, the standard package of the Whiteness Meter LWS-A12 includes calibration material. This material allows users to perform routine checks and adjustments to ensure measurement consistency and accuracy. You can use it to verify that your device is stable before conducting your whiteness measurements, even though a formal certificate is not provided.
Yes, Labtron supplies advanced whiteness meter LWM-A12.These systems often feature conveyor integration or robotic positioning and provide real-time feedback for process control. Inline meters typically share core measurement principles with benchtop models but are ruggedized and designed for continuous operation. They include automated calibration routines, UV compensation, and centralized data logging to maintain quality without manual intervention—making them ideal for large-scale manufacturing.
Labtron supplies advanced whiteness meter LWM-A12. For powders, starch, sugar, or granules, compaction into a tablet or insertion into a powder sample holder is required before measurement. Ensure homogeneous particle size and consistent packing density to avoid air gaps and uneven surface reflection. Many instruments specify sample mass (e.g., ??5?g) and container dimensions to standardize readings. Thorough shaking and leveling of the powder improves repeatability, and cleaning the aperture after each measurement prevents residual interference
