Taber Abrasion Tester is also referred to as Taber abraser or Taber abrader, which is used to evaluate the wear resistance of materials or finished products.

The machine features a rotary platform, allowing two abrading wheels to slide against the test piece at a constant speed.

This single platform Taber Abrasion Tester owns an elaborate design and adopts a precise drive system and a transmission device to ensure it runs smoothly, reliably and with low noise during use, providing a reliable and comfortable testing experience.

It is widely applicable to the determination of abrasion resistance of the leather, fabrics, textiles, coatings, paint, glass, ceramics, paper, high-pressure decorative laminates, natural rubbers, plastics, etc.

Application

The Taber abrasion tester has a wide range of applications, covering multiple industries and fields. Its main application areas include:

1. Coatings Industry: Used to test the abrasion resistance of coatings to evaluate their durability and service life in practical use.

2. Plastics Industry: Used to test the abrasion resistance of plastic products to evaluate their service life under mechanical friction, chemical corrosion, and other environments.

3. Rubber Industry: Used to test the abrasion resistance of rubber products to evaluate their service life and performance under friction, extrusion, and other environments.

4. Paper Industry: Used to test the abrasion resistance of paper to evaluate its durability and quality during printing, writing, and other processes.

5. Textile Industry: Used to test the abrasion resistance of textiles to evaluate their durability and quality during wearing, washing, and other processes.

6. Flooring Industry: Used to test the abrasion resistance of flooring materials to evaluate their service life and performance under foot traffic, friction, and other environments.

In addition, the Taber abrasion tester is widely used in the automotive, electronics, and construction industries, providing strong support for material quality control and performance evaluation.

Test Procedures

The typical test procedure for the Taber abrasion tester includes:

1. Preparing the accessories and test sample.

2. Mounting and securing the prepared sample on the test platform.

3. Mounting the friction wheel onto the clamp and applying the balance weights to both sides.

4. Adjusting the vacuum pump's suction height and removing debris from the sample.

5. Mounting the sample at the other station of the instrument in the same manner.

6. Turning on the instrument and setting the bearing drive count on the timer.

7. Starting the instrument; the friction wheel will circulate and rub the sample at a set speed.

8. The test will automatically stop after reaching the set value. Remove the friction wheel and weights, loosen the clamp, and remove the sample.

9. The test is complete. Turn off the instrument, remove the sample for analysis and comparison to evaluate the material's abrasion resistance.
