Abrasion Tester

Caltech Engineering Services offer Platform abrasion testing machine. Abrasion resistance test method is very old technique over 80 years and used for many applications. Abraser or Rotary abrasion test has been a popular method for accelerated evaluation of abrasion and wear resistance. Rotary abrasion tester is a cost-effective, easy to use and high quality instrument. Taber type abrasion tester is used to cover a wide spectrum of materials (including plastics, coatings, laminates, leather, paper, ceramics, carpeting, safety glazing, etc.With the rotary abrasion method, a rub-wear action (sliding rotation) is applied on the surface of the test piece and the abrasion marks create a pattern of crossed arcs in a circular band that cover an specific area. A key characteristic of rotary taber type abrasion tester (abrader abraser) is the abrasion wheels traverse a complete circle on the sample surface, showing abrasion resistance at all angles relative to the grain or weave of the material. We also provide wheels like CS-10, CS-17, CS-18 and more
