Anton Paar GmbH developed TruGap™, a unique system to measure the actual gap in cone-and-plate and parallel-plate rheometry. Based on an induction principle, TruGap™ keeps the gap constant during the test no matter which temperature profiles are running.

TruGap™ saves time, makes the results more accurate and also makes life easier for the rheometer operator. With TruGap™ only one zero-gap routine has to be performed after changing a measurement geometry. This can be done at any temperature. No extra equilibration time is needed before zeroing the gap. Together with Toolmaster™, the unique geometry and accessory detection system, TruGap™ allows thorough and error-free documentation. TruGap™ saves time, reduces errors and makes thorough documentation possible.

Anton Paar GmbH was established in 1922 as a one-man locksmith’s workshop. Today 1078 employees worldwide develop, produce and distribute high-quality measuring instruments for the determination of properties such as density, temperature and viscosity as well as high-precision mechanical parts and assemblies. Anton Paar has strong links with universities and research laboratories worldwide. The company is owned by the Santner Foundation, which invests in research in the field of science and technology as well as in the rehabilitation of drug addicts.
