How Does a Zahn Cup Work?

The Zahn Cup operates according to the principles of efflux viscometry. The cup consists of a small metal cup which has an exact measurement of its bottom opening.The procedure requires the operator to completely immerse the cup into the liquid before lifting it out to begin the timing process.

The reading is compared against the target viscosity range specified for the ink or coating being used. The ink requires solvent addition or thinning when its flow time exceeds the maximum allowed limit. The ink produces print quality problems when its flow time becomes lower than the minimum required level because it creates ink misting and reduced color density and bad ink film formation.

Zahn Cups exist in five standard numbered versions, which range from Zahn Cup No. 1 to No. 5, and each version has a distinct orifice diameter that matches a particular viscosity measurement range.

Zahn Cup No. 1 — for very low viscosity liquids

Zahn Cup No. 2 — for low to medium-viscosity inks and coatings

Zahn Cup No. 3 — for medium viscosity flexo and gravure inks

Zahn Cup No. 4 — for higher viscosity inks and coatings

Zahn Cup No. 5 — for high-viscosity liquids and adhesives
