Sindin
Sindin is a drop shape analyzer developed for laboratory research. Sindin measures the contact angle between liquids and solid materials, which describes how well a liquid wets a surface. The instrument uses video contour analysis and combines a digital camera, a zoom microscope and an adjustable LED background light source. A three-dimensional sample table allows automatic micro injection and precise movement. The body is made of aviation-grade aluminum. Dedicated software captures images, analyzes them and exports the measured data automatically, which reduces operator error.
Sindin Drop Shape Analyzer by Wu Qi has been identified as a grand example of service design by the A' Design Award & Competition. Sindin Drop Shape Analyzer received the Silver A' Design Award in Scientific Instruments and Research Equipment Design in 2022. The A' Scientific Instruments and Research Equipment Design Award is an international, jury-voted, fair and ethical design competition which rewards superior design of microscopes, spectrometers, chromatographs, centrifuges, oscilloscopes, telescopes, mass spectrometers, particle accelerators and more.
