Durometer for paper rolls

The Parotester2 can quickly and precisely diagnose roll imperfections, hardness inconsistencies and uneven winding, preventing problems for printing and converting operations. Portable and lightweight, the Parotester2 is perfect for roll hardness testing in the warehouse or on the production floor, providing an immediate visual assessment of the hardness profile.

Field-proven technology compares impact and rebound speeds, automatically calculating a hardness value (LU).

Taking Leeb readings at 15 cm (6") intervals or closer across the surface of the roll will aid in detecting irregularities in roll winding quality.

Compliant with TAPPI T 834 om-07 testing standards, this device is especially useful in the paper industry where a lower impact energy is required. With this low impact energy, the Parotester2 is also ideal for testing foils, films and other plastic sheet materials.

• Large LCD display provides an easy-to-read visual assessment of the hardness values.
• The high sensitivity (1-LU readability) diagnoses minute differences in roll hardness.
• This unit can store approximately 5,000 single measurements which can then be uploaded to your computer or sent directly to your printer.
• Individual settings can be stored for specific user requirements.
• Using the optional accessory barcode reader, roll identification numbers can be quickly captured from rolls and uploaded to the Parotester2.
