Automated Tilting Base

Advancing and receding contact angles are readily determined by inclining the substrate and allowing the drop to deform as a function of gravity. By mounting a ramé-hart goniometer on the optional Automated Tilting Base, it is possible to incline not only the substrate but the entire instrument, preserving perfectly the optics-to-specimen alignment. This technique greatly expedites such measurements. The Automated Tilting Base is fully software driven and is supported by DROPimage Advanced v2.3 and above. This option requires DROPimage Advanced.
