Can I use my instrument when it is one year past the last certified date?
You can dismiss the warning that appears by pressing the centre button, and the instrument will function as normal. This message depends on the calibration

The term “viscosity” is a parameter that describes a fluids resistance to flow. This resistance is a measure of the friction and the forces of interaction between the layers of a fluid. This friction is apparent when one layer of fluid is made to move against another The greater the friction, the greater the amount of force required to cause the movement – known as “shear”.
The process of flow through an orifice can often be used as a relative measurement and classification of viscosity. This measured kinematic viscosity is generally expressed in seconds of flow time which can be converted into centistokes (cSt) using a viscosity calculator.
Manufactured from high grade aluminium alloy with stainless steel orifices (where indicated), the Rhopoint Flow Cups are available with a range of UKAS / ISO 17025 certified standard oils to confirm the flow cup is measuring within specification.

A glossmeter (also known as a gloss meter) is an instrument that is used to measure the specular reflection of a surface such as gloss.
Board stiffness and crease resistance are important measures that indicate how a finished carton will run on an automated glueing, filling or packaging line. Substrate
