Product information "Bench scale WS-P"

The digital weight per unit area scale was specially developed for determining the weight of weight per unit area in g/m² for many materials (such as paper, textiles and fabrics, rubber, leather, felt, etc.). This scale is often referred to as a paper scale because the scale can calculate the paper weight in g/m² using a sample via an operating mode. For textile samples, the scale is also called a textile scale or fabric scale. When used, a sample with an area of 100 cm² (a square measuring 10 x 10 cm) is placed on the scale and the weight per unit area is displayed in g/m². For example, a weight of 0.30 g of a sample corresponds to a weight per unit area of 30 g/m². The grammage scale is an indispensable, fast measuring tool for the paper and textile industry, as well as for paper shops, graphic artists, designers and fashion designers.

Operation

The user-friendly surface allows even little experienced personnel to use the textile scale WS-P. The weight can be selected (by pressing a button) as a surface weight directly in grams per square meter (g/m²) or alternatively displayed in grams. To determine the mass per unit area, the fabrics samples are cut with round sample cutters and weighed on a surface weight scale. At the surface weight determination an exact 100 square centimeter sample must be placed on the scale. To ensure this, it is recommended to use a sample cutter for 100 cm² large samples.

Construction

By a stainless steel platform, a robust plastic housing and a waterproof membrane keyboard, an optimal protection of the Paper Scale is guaranteed (IP54). A built-in spirit level and four adjustable feet provide a simple installation of the WS-P at different locations. The wind protection is included.
