This instrument is designed for paper and paperboard smoothness performance testing according to the internationally accepted Bekk smoothing instrument working principle.

The KR‑428 Bekk‑style smoothness analyser measures surface smooth‑level for paper and paperboard following classic Bekk air‑leakage principle. Under fixed clamping pressure, it records the time taken for air to seep between specimen and polished glass plane; the time reading (Bekk seconds) reflects how smooth the paper surface is.
This desktop lab instrument strictly meets ISO 5627 and GB/T 456 specifications. It supports single‑side and two‑sided differential comparison measurement, equipped with large‑volume / small‑volume vacuum‑container switching for samples of different smooth‑grade. Widely used within pulp‑and‑paper mills, printing enterprises, packaging factories, R&D centres and accredited third‑party material‑testing labs for raw‑material inspection, printability assessment and finished‑paper quality grading.
