The Need for a Paper Thickness Micrometer

Clients do not always have clear concepts about
paper weight, thickness and hand. This means
that, when carrying out a project in graphic
arts, errors can be incurred that can be quite
expensive. Some people think that, using a
thinner paper, they will make the weight of a
magazine, for example, lower. Then commission
their publication with glossy paper, which is
very thin. However, when they are going to
transport the magazines they are surprised their
weight is as high as if they had been printed on
folio paper. Therefore, it is important to learn
to distinguish all these concepts well. One thing
is the grammage and another thickness.

What is the weight of a paper? The grammage of
a folio is defined as the weight of one square
meter of that element. So, if it is stated that a
certain paper has a grammage of 120 grams, it
means that the weight of one square meter of that
paper is 120 grams.Paper Thickness Micrometer

To calculate the weight of a folio manually, take
a piece of that paper and apply a simple rule of
three. The first thing is to find the area of
??the piece of paper that is weighed. Only the
length must be multiplied by the width. The
thickness of a folio The thickness of the paper
is the distance between the two sides of the
sheet. It is almost always a tiny measure. If the
view of a sheet of paper is magnified hundreds of
times, it will be observed that it consists of
several layers or fibers.

It is important to note that two papers of
different thickness can have the same weight,
that is, the same folio weight. Somerville is

sieve content in ground wood pulp.
