    GSM Cutter with Balance

     

    A GSM Cutter with Balance is a lab toolset used to determine the GSM (Grams per Square Meter) of fabrics, which indicates the fabric’s weight and density. The kit includes a GSM round cutter and a precision weighing balance.

     

    Purpose GSM Cutter with Balance:

    To accurately measure the weight per unit area of textile, paper, or nonwoven samples for quality control and product classification.

     

    How It Works:

    GSM Cutter: – A circular blade cuts a fixed area (usually 100 cm²) from the fabric.

    Weighing Balance: – The cut piece is weighed, and the result is multiplied by 100 to get GSM.

    GSM = Weight (in grams) × 100

     

    Applications of GSM Cutter with Balance:

    Textile and garment industry

    Nonwovens and paper manufacturing

    QC labs and R&D

    Rubber Cutting Pad – Protects blade and provides a smooth surface for cutting.

    Safety Lock – Prevents accidental blade exposure.

    Compact & Durable Design- Long-lasting, lab-friendly construction.

     

    How to Use GSM Cutter with Balance:

    Prepare the Fabric Sample- Place the fabric on the rubber cutting pad.

    Cut the Sample – Hold the GSM cutter firmly and rotate it to cut a 100 cm² circular sample.

    Turn on the Balance – Power up the digital weighing scale and tare it to zero.

     

    Weigh the Sample – Place the cut fabric piece on the balance and note the weight in grams.

    Calculate GSM – Multiply the weight by 100 to get GSM.  – GSM = Sample weight (g) × 100

    Record the Result- Log the GSM value for quality control or analysis.

    Clean and Store – Wipe the cutter and balance, and store them safely after use.

     

    GSM Calculation Formula:

    GSM (g/m²) = (Weight of Sample in grams) × 100

    When using a GSM cutter (100 cm²):

    The cutter gives a fixed area of 100 cm², which is 1/100th of a square meter.

    So, multiplying the sample’s weight by 100 gives the GSM directly.

    Example:

    If the sample weighs 1.75 g, then:

    GSM = 1.75 × 100 = 175 g/m²

     

    Balance Calibration Guide (Manual Calibration):

    Warm-Up   – Turn on the balance and let it warm up for 10–15 minutes if required.

    Level the Balance   – Use the built-in bubble level and adjust leveling feet until the bubble is centered.

    Tare the Balance   – Press the “TARE” or “ZERO” button to reset the display to 0.000 g.

     

    Enter Calibration Mode   – Press the “CAL” or “MODE” button (depends on the model).

    – Some balances may require holding the button for a few seconds.

    Use Standard Weight   – When prompted, place a certified calibration weight (e.g., 100g, 200g) on the pan.   – Wait for the display to stabilize.

     

    Confirm Calibration   – The balance will beep or show “PASS” once successful.   – Remove the weight when done. Recheck Zero  – Ensure the display returns to 0.000 g after removing the weight.

     

    Tips:

    Use certified weights for accuracy (Class F1 or E2).

    Calibrate in a draft-free, vibration-free environment.

    Calibrate daily or before critical measurements.
