Biuged BGD 350 Image Recognizer for Cross‑Cut Adhesion Testing

The Biuged BGD 350 Image Recognizer for Cross‑Cut is a digital inspection instrument designed to automatically evaluate coating adhesion after a cross‑cut test. Traditional visual assessment is subjective and often inconsistent; the BGD 350 solves this by using computer‑based image processing to quantify flaking area and classify adhesion grades with high repeatability. Its compact, hand‑held cylindrical design makes it easy to position directly over the cross‑cut pattern for rapid, accurate analysis. After a cross‑cut adhesion test is performed, the operator places the BGD 350 over the cut lattice. The built‑in camera captures a high‑resolution image, and the instrument’s digital processing system automatically analyzes:

• Number of cuts

• Cutting spacing

• Width of cut lines

• Percentage of flaked area

The system then displays the correct adhesion classification according to the relevant standard. This eliminates subjective judgment and improves reproducibility across operators and laboratories.

Key Features

Automatic Digital Image Analysis

The instrument uses visual automatic analysis technology to capture and process images of the cross‑cut area, providing fast, objective results.

Optimized Imaging Modes

Special hardware automatically selects the best imaging mode to maximize contrast between coating, substrate, and cut lines, ensuring accurate detection of flaking.

Automatic Measurement of Cutting Parameters

The system automatically estimates:

• Cutting quantity

• Cutting spacing

• Width of cutting parallels

Manual fine‑adjustment is available for precision.

Automatic Flaking‑Area Calculation

The BGD 350 calculates the flaked‑area percentage and displays the corresponding adhesion classification instantly.

Compact, Hand‑Held Design

A cylindrical body with integrated camera and adjustable LED illumination allows easy placement over the test area.
