In addition to our new on-line store, we've
also launched a new model, our 190-F1. This tool is based on the same
form factor as our Standard Goniometers 200-F1 and 250-F1. It also
includes a high-speed F1 series digital camera. The 190-F1 ships with
our DROPimage CA software making it a cost-effective entry-level tool
priced under $10k. In addition, it can easily be upgraded at a later
date with DROPimage Standard or Advanced. There are also a number of
popular modular accessories which can be added.
The 190-F1, like all other currently
offered ramé-hart models is a complete turn-key system including the
instrument, backlighting system, manual dispensing, camera, software,
PC, and LCD -- everything you need, out of the box, to start taking
contact angle measurements.
Model 190-F1
Shown above is the Model 190-F1 which
includes the light source. The PC and LCD (not shown) are also included
with this system.

We've also introduced a completely new
tilting base option. For many years ramé-hart has offered a tilting base
(p/n 100-06). The tilting base is designed to allow researchers to
measure advancing, receding and roll-off angles. The old model was
available as a manual device only. The new design is available in (2)
models: The 100-25-M (as shown below) is a manual device with a hand
crank allowing the user to change the tilt of the instrument from 0°
to 90°
in both directions. The Model 100-25-A is virtually identical except in
lieu of the hand crank, there is a stepper motor which controls the
tilt. The tilt control is accomplished in our DROPimage Advanced
software. Note that 100-25-M, the manual version, began shipping last
month; the 100-25-A is currently in production and will be available
this quarter.
Model 100-25-M
We also have an upgrade kit which will
allow the purchaser of a 100-25-M to upgrade later on from the manual
version to a motor-driven software-controlled 100-25-A. We're excited
about this new product and the improvements it brings to our instrument
line-up.
