Delivering Mobility, Accuracy, and Simplicity, No Matter How You Look at It
Eliminate tedious, error-prone measurements from surface treatment validation
Reliable Measurements From Every Angle and Results All In One Place
Introducing Ayríís, the groundbreaking 3D contact angle measurement device for wettability that places results in the palm of your hand. Part of our new Generation íí portfolio, Ayríís has been purposefully designed to eliminate user intervention and result interpretation, thereby assuring the utmost in reliable QC checks of wettability. With handheld mobility and functionality that doesn’t require a connection to a peripheral device, Ayríís quickly provides automatic self-checking for each result and is especially useful for large workpieces.
In manufacturing, small errors can lead to big losses – lost time, money, and product. Ensuring consistent and correct surface treatment depends on precise, accurate measurements of variables like dyne levels (surface free energy). Dyne ink, a common surface treatment validation tool, is prone to errors because it relies on human interpretation and manual processes – telling only half the story.
Dyne ink opens the possibility for inconsistent, unreliable validation of a surface treatment’s effectiveness – which impacts the quality of the final product itself.
Effective surface treatment validation requires accuracy. Unfortunately, in an industry where dyne ink is the standard, error-free surface treatment validation feels like an anomaly. But it does exist.
Easy. Accurate. Intelligent.
3D Accuracy.
Functional Simplicity.
By providing an evaluation of an exact virtual replica of a dosed drop using precise reflection patterns, you’re able to see the 3D contact angle of water and receive clear, definitive result validation based on your own quality parameters. Taking a measurement is simple: place Ayríís, click, and read the result in seconds.
Ayríís delivers other benefits as well, including no special training requirements and no need for additional peripheral devices. It’s ready to work when you are.
Place. Click. Done.
With KRÜSS’s MSA, surface treatment validation is as easy as 1, 2, 3. The fully automated, one-click solution is so easy to operate, application errors are almost impossible. Simply place on the surface, click, and you’re done.
Easy to Use. Easy to Own.
We want to make owning Ayríís as easy as it is to use. So, we offer four ways to add Ayríís to your operations. It is available for short-term lease, long-term lease, rent-to-own, and standard purchase. The opportunity to “try before you buy” reflects our confidence in the world-class performance we believe you will experience with Ayríís.
Remove the Guesswork
When it comes to manufacturing products that will work reliably, you need accurate surface treatment validation. Every time. This is where the Mobile Surface Analyzer (MSA) by KRÜSS steps in. Ensure accurate quality control with its fully automated design that calculates dyne levels (SFE) at the push of a button, without the risk of human error.In addition to accuracy, the MSA provides additional benefits to manufacturers, including:
- Ability to test multiple sections of a surface
- Allows for testing at different angles (overhead, horizontal or vertical)
- Provides results in seconds
- Collects and stores data in ADVANCE® software
- Ability to test in manufacturing facility versus a lab environment

Introducing the Next Generation in Surface Science. Generation íí from KRÜSS.
We’re looking at surface science from a whole new angle with our new Generation íí portfolio. With the introduction of Ayríís and our new, highly versatile tensiometer, Tensíío, we’re changing the game in surface measurement by adding increased accuracy, simplicity, functionality, and reliability. It truly is the next generation in surface science.
ADVANCE® your understanding
No more relying on handwritten notes and manual data entry. KRÜSS’s ADVANCE® software is intuitive and sophisticated, automatically capturing and storing all your complex measurement data.
Unrivaled in the industry, ADVANCE® is easy to use, includes automation capabilities, and provides complex measurements in seconds. ADVANCE® follows a universal workflow —preparation, perform, review, evaluate — that ensures every measurement is based in scientific principle. Its user-friendly interface eliminates multiple menus and pop-ups and guides you through each test — from sample prep to exporting your data. With the ability to automatically collect and store results from the MSA, it eliminates human error and keeps a record of historical data for future production cycles.
Same tool. Multiple applications.
When it comes to surface treatment validation, KRÜSS offers unmatched product breadth and depth of engineering.
