WSD 02 - Wet Stretch Dynamics Analyzer

Now with integrated measuring of the humidity (paper and environment), better sample mounting

• Measurement of the dynamics of the change in dimension of paper by means of one-sided contact with water based liquids under adjustable tension

• Main applications:

  • Decor paper in contact with:

    • Water

    • Melamine Resin

    • Gravure ink

  • Gypsum board, coating base paper, newsprint paper, offset printing paper, label paper, ink jet-paper, liner board etc. in contact with:

    • Water

    • Fountain solution

    • Ink jet-ink

• Main user:

  • Paper producer

  • Chemical Supplier

  • Converter of Paper

• Replacing classical wet expansion methods with two-sided liquid contact

• Measuring range

  • Wet expansion to a maximum of 27%, measuring duration unlimited

  • Recording the expansion from the moment of liquid contact, displaying the results from approx. 100 ms after initial contact

• Measuring result

  • Expansion-time diagram

  • Expansion value at a free selectable time point
