Product Description
Abrasion Testing Equipment Taber Abrasion Tester
Application:
This machine is applicable to measuring for leather,fabric,coating,paper,floor
tile,plywood,glass,natural rubber.,etc.By using the specified grinding wheel,and loading the weight on the specimen which cut by knife.setting up the rolling times.then taking out the specimen,observe the status of the specimen after doing abrasion.or calculate the different weight for the specimen before testing and after testing to get the abrasion indexer.which equals to the abrasion loss weight/rolling times X 1000 the specified model of grinding wheel.H18,H22, CS10,CS17,CS32,CS33.
It can be used for measuring Travel suitcases, carpets, cardboard, clothing, glass, plastic coatings, tiles, metal coatings, paints, varnishes, decorative sheets, high-pressure sheets, plastics, textiles, resilient floor mats, traffic paints, anodized layers, blankets, electronic components, Decorative panels, waxes, labels, holsters, dental materials, automotive interiors, resins, furniture, etc.

FAQs of Abrasion Testing Equipment Taber Abrasion Tester:
Q: How is the Taber Abrasion Tester operated and what controls are available?
A: The Taber 5135/5155 can be controlled digitally or manually, offering programmable test cycles via a user-friendly digital control panel. Operations are simplified by a digital LCD display and an automated revolution counter, with support for specimen dimensions and test parameters set as defined.
Q: What types of materials can be tested with this equipment?
A: This abrasion tester is suitable for evaluating the surface abrasion resistance of various materials, including paints, coatings, plastics, textiles, and leathers, making it ideal for laboratory, quality control, and research applications.
Q: When should I use different abrading wheel types or load weights?
A: Wheel types (CS-10, CS-17, H-18, H-22) and load weights (250g, 500g, 1000g per wheel) should be selected based on the test standard for your material. Harder materials or more rigorous abrasion standards may require harder wheels and higher weights to simulate real-world wear conditions effectively.
Q: Where is this tester commonly installed and how is it set up?
A: This tester is typically installed in laboratory or quality control environments, mounted on a benchtop. It requires a 220V AC, 50Hz power supply, and comes equipped with standard accessories including sample holders, power cable, weights, and an instruction manual for setup.
Q: What is the process for conducting an abrasion resistance test with this unit?
A: Place the prepared specimen (observing specific size and thickness requirements) on the sample holder, select the appropriate abrading wheels and weights, set test cycles through the control panel, and close the transparent safety hood. The test runs automatically until completion or until the auto-stop feature is triggered for safety.
Q: What benefits does this equipment offer for testing and research?
A: Key advantages include high accuracy (1 rotation), real-time digital display, programmable cycles, interchangeable wheels, and enhanced safety via auto-stop and safety hood. These features ensure consistent, reproducible results and efficient operation for advanced testing needs.
