The OCS Gloss Measurement (OGM) is designed for the constant and precise control of film gloss properties. The measuring device is integrated into the Modular Film Analyzer (MFA). It enables a continuous measurement of the gloss value on polymer film. The gloss properties of films are analyzed based on their different ability to reflect light. A special LED lighting unit illuminates the continuous film while a photo diode measures the strength of the reflected light. The measured amount of gloss, from matt to glossy, is given in GU (Gloss Units).
