The German BYK micro TRI loss 4563 glossiness meter integrates three angles of 20, 60, and 85, making it portable like a single angle instrument. Three angles on one instrument enable you to quickly detect changes in quality according to international standards. All selected angles are measured at the same point and the measurement results are immediately displayed - including statistics, differences, and qualified/unqualified results.

High medium low gloss: Which type of application does your application belong to?
The triangular gloss meter integrates three angles of 20 °, 60 °, and 85 ° - making it as portable as a single angle instrument. Three angles on one instrument enable you to quickly detect changes in quality according to international standards.
In order to clearly obtain the glossiness difference from flat to high gloss, international standards specify three angles. Each angle is optimized for measurement within the corresponding gloss range.
All selected angles are measured at the same point and the measurement results are immediately displayed - including statistics, differences, and qualified/unqualified results.
The following example shows a better display of the difference in gloss between two samples at a 20 ° angle:
