GSM Balance:
The weight of fabric is
described in two ways; either as weight per unit area or weight per
unit length. If we know weight per unit area, we can calculate weight
per unit length by multiplying weight per unit area and width.
The “ASIAN”
Quadrant Scale For GSM is a simple and quick device which
directly indicates the weight per unite area in grams per square
meter (GSM) on a sector scale when a sample of selected size is
suspended from a clamp fixed to the pointer arm.
The “ASIAN” GSM
Balance is designed to give the weight per unit area of textile
fabrics directly. It consists of a quadrant scale calibrated in
values of GSM fixed in a vertical plane on a rigid base having
provision for leveling. A pointer beam is pivoted on two jewel
bearings at the centre point of the scale. A specimen of specified
area is cut out from the fabric with the help of either of the two
templates provided (or by round cutter) and is suspended on one end
of the pointer beam. The weight per unite area is read directly from
the quadrant scale.
Range: 300 GSM and 600GSM.
