wave-scan plus 5
 
The Objective Eye for Orange Peel

On high gloss surfaces we see orange peel as a wavy pattern of light and dark areas.  The appearance changes with structure size.

The wave-scan plus 5 analyzes orange peel according to structure size; Ultrashort wave to Ultralong wave.

  • Higher resolution and extended measurement range: 0.1 to 30 mm wavelength.
  • Classical Long wave (LW) and Short wave (SW)
  • Different paint systems can be compared - no matter whether 1 K or 2 K or even powder coating
  • For solid and metallic coatings
Quick and reliable - in the Lab and in Production
  • portable; easy to operate with one hand
  • highly reliable results due to self-calibration
  • reproducible results on test panels as well as curved parts (r > 1m)
  • operation according to your own sampling procedure
  • storage of 599 readings with clear object identification
  • auto-chart software for professional analysis, documentation and data management included
