Description

Straightforward TAPPI Brightness measurement

The Test/Plus TAPPI Brightness machine is a reliable brightness tester that combines industry standardized measurement technology with an innovative control package, for straightforward tailoring of brightness testing to suit your needs.    

Look forward to paper TAPPI brightness testing that is simple, adaptable, and exact. With an easy-to-use interface, multiple ways to extract data and results within seconds, Test/Plus TAPPI Brightness offer tight quality control for paper brightness testing.  

The importance of brightness measurements

The brightness of paper, pulp, tissue and paperboard is a key quality determiner, creating an optical value that can affect how visually appealing the end product of packaging is. Paper brightness is a way of describing the numerical value of the reflectance factor of a sample with respect to blue light of specific spectral and geometric characteristics.  

This factor tells you how bright the sample will appear to the human eye. Paper brightness is related to how white it appears, but the two values are not correlated. Find out more in our guide to the difference between paper whiteness and brightness 

Brightness measurement applications

Essential for all areas of the paper and pulp sector, brightness measurement helps determine how visually appealing a material will be. From the production of hygiene tissues to flexible packaging, the brightness of the paper, tissue or paperboard used will have a huge effect on the appeal of the product.  

Testing to TAPPI T452 standards

Know that when you’re testing paper brightness, you’re doing it to industry standards with Test/Plus TAPPI Brightness. A reliable brightness tester designed to allow testing in accordance with TAPPI T452, the method used for determining the brightness of white, near-white, and naturally colored pulp, paper, and paperboard. 

Apps for brightness measurement and analysis

At the core of the TEST/Plus® TAPPI Brightness are a series of specially developed apps that allow for complete control of your data. They also allow you to tailor the way you interface with and operate the instrument, for the ultimate in flexibility. These include: 

  • Print App for hard copy of the data 
  • Averaging and Statistics App for statistical analysis 
  • Export App for getting the data to the DCS 
  • Database App for managing data on the instrument 
  • Correlation Factor APP for correlating measurement results to legacy instruments or test 

Using the Test/Plus TAPPI Brightness 

This straightforward brightness testing solution is easy to operate. To see how simple testing can be, watch our short Test/Plus TAPPI Brightness introduction video.
