Description

The Rub Tester has several key features and specifications designed for accurate rub testing: Testing Range: Typically accommodates a range of 0 to 1000 rubs (or cycles), adjustable depending on test requirements. Test Area Size: The test area for rub testing typically ranges from 50 mm x 50 mm to 150 mm x 150 mm, depending on the model. Speed Control: Adjustable rubbing speed, generally between 30 to 60 cycles per minute (CPM), which simulates real-world friction conditions. Load Mechanism: A standardized weight of 2 lbs and 4lbs pressure system is used to apply a consistent amount of force to the rubbing surface being Abrasive Cloth: The machine uses standard abrasive materials such as cloth or felt to simulate contact with other surfaces during handling or packaging. Rub Counter: Digital or analog counter to record the number of rubs completed during the test. Frame Material: Constructed from durable materials such as steel or aluminum, ensuring long-lasting stability. Dimensions: Compact and space-efficient, with models varying from tabletop units to larger floor-standing machines. Accuracy: Designed to meet national and international testing standards such as ASTM D5264, ISO 15184, and TAPPI T 830.
