Taber Abrasion Tester test procedures and maintenance protocols

The Taber Abrasion Tester is used to test the abrasion resistance of leather, plastic and other materials by rotating and grinding, using different types of abrasive wheels to rotate and rub on the sample to test the abrasion resistance of the material, it is a testing equipment developed and produced by our company Shanghai Qianshui Precision Electromechanical Technology Co.

Applicable standard:

QB/T2726-2005, ASTM D4060, ASTM D1175, D1044, DIN53754, 53799, 53109, 52347, ISO5470, GB/T4085.

Taber Abrasion Tester test steps

Clamping sample:

1. Place the cut sample on the test bench according to the standard requirements.

2. Keep the sample flat, tighten the compression nut and gasket, and tighten the sample fixing ring with a hexagonal wrench.

Clamping of the wear wheel and weights.

1. Attach the pre-ground standard wear wheel to the inside front of the balancing arm and tighten the compression nut.

2. Clamp the corresponding weights or balance weights according to the required pressure.

3. Attach the standard abrasive wheels according to the specifications of the respective standards for the different materials to be tested.

How do I maintain the Taber Abrasion Tester?

1. After each use of the instrument, switch off the power supply, remove the test specimen from the equipment and wipe off any dust or stains on the instrument with a clean, dry cotton cloth to completely restore it to its normal state before use.

2. The temperature of the environment where the instrument is placed should not be too high and the relative humidity should not be too high.

3. The instrument should be cleaned externally once from time to time when it is not often used, and powered up from time to time to avoid causing dampness in the wiring and undesirable conditions.
