Hegman Grindometer

The Hegman Grindometer from NEURTEK is an essential tool to measure the fineness of grind in paints, lacquers, varnishes, inks, pastes, and similar materials. It’s also widely used in food industries (e.g., chocolate production) and pharmaceuticals (creams).

This grindometer quickly and reliably evaluates particle dispersion in coatings, ensuring precise process control in manufacturing.

Why Measure Fineness of Grind?

• Poorly ground paints result in dull finishes, lack of gloss, and reduced protection.
• Grinding is expensive, so this test helps optimize time and costs.
• It allows adjustment of grinding equipment for maximum efficiency.
• Helps compare pigments of the same type but different sources.
• Essential for quality control both at production and upon receipt.

Features of the NEURTEK Hegman Grindometer

• Made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel.
• Requires no greasing or special care.
• Compact and lightweight design with a single hardened, calibrated piece.
• Easy cleaning: the scale is engraved on the sides, not on the measuring surface.
• Supplied with a hardened scraper and a leather carrying case.
• Equipped with two measurement slots for double determination from one sample.
• The INTA version has one slot and three scales: NS, mm, and mils.

Scales and Graduations

All models include the Hegman-NS scale to avoid reading errors. Additionally:

• Optional FPVPC scale.
• Conversion chart on the back for different units.
• Compliant with international measurement standards.

Key Benefits

• Dual slots for comparative measurements.
• Quick cleaning with a cloth.
• Easy readjustment when the measuring surface wears.
• Perfect for labs, production lines, and quality control.
• High precision in fineness of grind testing.
