Robot SPREADMASTER – Automated Sunscreen Spreading

Robotic application is mandatory in the new ISO 23675 method for In Vitro SPF

Introducing the SPREADMASTER by Weneos, a cutting-edge innovation in sun protection evaluation. Tailored for professionals seeking precision, this compact and lightweight device delivers exceptional performance with an accuracy of 0.005 mm (5 μm).

The SPREADMASTER ensures even application of sunscreen on PMMA molded (HD6) and sandblasted (SB6) substrates, guaranteeing reproducibility and precise measurements. Compliant with solar standards like ISO 24443:2021, it is indispensable for accurate SPF and UVA protection assessments. Its compact design is perfect for space-constrained labs, and its portability makes it easy to handle.

Overview of the new Robot SPREADMASTER by Weneos

This improved version is designed to meet the needs of professionals who demand unrivalled precision in the application of sun care products. Smaller, lighter and equipped with cutting-edge technology, the SPREADMASTER offers enhanced performance that redefines market standards with an accuracy of 0.005 mm (5 μm).

With its ability to spread sunscreen products evenly on substrates PMMA molded (HD6) and sandblasted (SB6)the SPREADMASTER ensures reproducibility and precise measurement of sun protection, facilitating research and development of new, effective products. Fully compliant with solar standards such as ISO 24443:2021ISO 23675:2024ISO 23698:2024 and others, making this robot indispensable for the accurate assessment of Sun Protection Factors(SPF), UVA protection(UVAPF), and more.
With its compact design, the SPREADMASTER can be placed on a bench, making it ideal for use in laboratories with restricted space, while its light weight allows easy handling and increased portability.
