Sample Cutters

A GSM sampler is a laboratory tool used for quantitative testing of paper and sheet materials. Its main function is to cut samples to a fixed standard area, providing accurate and repeatable test samples for basis weight (GSM, grams per square meter) measurement. SISCO offers circular sample cutters, which are easy to operate manually, highly accurate, and can assist in papermaking, packaging, and other testing.

Why is a circular sample cutter used for GSM testing? 

The gsm sample cutters are widely used in GSM testing because they offer more precise cutting areas and are less affected by operational errors. The circular structure ensures uniform sample edges and consistent area, avoiding area deviations caused by corners or irregular cuts, thereby improving the accuracy and repeatability of basis weight test results. At the same time, circular sample cutters are easy to operate, distribute pressure evenly, and are suitable for frequent sampling, offering higher reliability and consistency in laboratory quality control and standardized testing.

What is a sample cutter machine used for? 

Samples cut using a GSM sampler are then weighed using a high-precision electronic balance to calculate the material's weight per unit area. This precision sample cutter is widely used in papermaking, packaging, printing, quality inspection and materials testing laboratories, which is an indispensable pretreatment instrument in the GSM testing process.
