Elcometer 4310
Payne Method Dip Coater

A device designed for use with the Payne method to test the effectiveness of a coating applied by dipping. The Elcometer 4310 consists of a motor with a three-step pulley fitted on an adjustable tripod.

A cord suspends the test piece on one side and its counterweight on the other. It passes over a guide roller and winds onto one of the steps of the drive pulley, raising the test piece vertically after it has been dipped in the product.

The result depends on the viscosity of the product, the surface condition of the substrate and the speed at which the test piece is extracted.
