Innowep GmbH Measuring and Testing

INNOWEP Measuring & Testing is a German company that since its foundation in 1990 has
become a leading specialist for surface-, material- and functional testing.
INNOWEP develops and manufacture innovative measuring and testing methods, equipment
and up-to-date industrial solutions. This technology is applicable for R&D, QA and the manufacturing
process.
INNOWEP cooperates with top level companies in different branches as well as established
international institutes and has its own worldwide distributor network.
The company’s products have been adopted as international and corporate standards for research
and quality.
Products:
UST®: Universal testing unit for the continuous micro mechanical characterization of
material and functional properties on flat and structured surfaces.
UST® enables objective statements about various material characteristics, e.g.: haptics,
micro abrasion, scratch resistance, wear behaviour, micro tribology, elasticity & plasticity,
damping, softness, micro hardness, roughness and micro friction
ABREX®: standardized and reproducible soft-chemo mechanical hand abrasion test according
to DIN EN 60068-2-70 / IEC 68-2-70. It enables a real life testing procedure on
nearly all surfaces and materials like textile, lacquers and printings. ABREX® offers the
possibility to simulate the high complex viscoelastic procedure of hand abrasion including
the simulation of the chemical environment
OptoTop®: Optical surface measuring system for quick and contactless measurement of
topography and geometry (micro and macro geometry) through laser triangulation.
OptoTop® gives information about optical roughness of flat, structured and curved surfaces.
Besides OptoTop® is able to evaluate the 3D-topography as well as possible structural
defects.
Besides the development and production of testing instruments, INNOWEP also provides service
measurements and contract R&D in its own laboratory.
