Common Inspection Equipment for Coating & Paint Industry The inspection of paint and coatings is one of the most important stages in production. Without proper inspection, it is impossible to ensure quality or determine if a coating has achieved the desired properties. Paint and coatings industry-specific inspection equipment are designed for different applications, e.g.: durability testing, washability testing, hardness testing, glossmeter and even color measurement. Which testing equipment to choose depends on the production process, production quality requirements and the specific properties of the product being manufactured.
Washability tester: This is one of the most common paint inspection tools used in the coating industry. Washability tester measures both flash rust and salt spray resistance of a product by using a washability test bench. Flash rust is the rusting that occurs when exposed to air for 24 hours after washing with water.
