Gloss Sensor

GM04VC2

Adjustable Gloss Level
Practically independent of distance
Reliable differentiation between glossy and matte objects

These sensors are capable of differentiating between surfaces with glossy and matte finishes. This allows for the monitoring of paint and adhesive layers, as well as drying status.
