A New Tensiometer That Measures Up to Your Needs
Eliminate tedious, error-prone measurements from surface treatment validation
More Versatility Makes The Most Of Your Time And Money
We’re taking versatility to a whole new level with our revolutionary tensiometer, Tensíío, part of our new Generation íí portfolio. We’ve designed Tensíío so you can custom build a device that meets your unique needs: nothing more, nothing less. After all, why spend money on features you don’t need? And, if it’s versatility you’re looking for, Tensíío’s high method diversity delivers 15 different approaches for analyzing surface and interfacial tension, wettability, and many other properties of your liquid, solid bodies, powders, and fiber samples. We’ve designed it to be as versatile as the tasks you perform each and every day.
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.
Combining features like an integrated touch display and camera, integrated control of specimen temperature, colored sample chamber illumination, enhanced drive speed and precision, plus an electronic bubble leveler, Tensíío delivers versatility, time savings, ease of use, a high degree of accuracy, and a highly intuitive control system.
Depending on the particular application, Tensíío can move as fast or as slow as you need it to. And with an optional high-resolution camera, you can record and measure the adhesion between a drop and a solid surface while analyzing the drop optically.
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.
Customized To Optimize Your Needs and Your Budget
With the ability to add features as you need them, Tensíío can be customized to your specific needs, so its capabilities grow as you grow. Most importantly, this means you only pay for what you need, when you need it.
Trade Up to the Next Level in Surface Science. It’s as Easy as 1, 2, 3.
With the introduction of Tensíío, you can upgrade your capabilities no matter which brand of tensiometer you currently use. Get our premier tensiometer and save some money along the way! It’s a very simple process.
Simply answer a few questions and our team will work with you to determine a plan of action to apply the value of your current tensiometer toward the purchase of a Tensíío.
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.
Our Generation íí portfolio featuring our groundbreaking, fully customizable tensiometer, Tensíío, and the industry’s first 3D contact angle measurement instrument for solid-liquid interface analysis, Ayríís, is changing the game in surface science. We invite you to take a look and see how we measure up to your needs.
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.
