Floor Caster Wear Tester

The Floor Caster Wear Tester is designed to evaluate the wear resistance of chair casters on various floor coverings, including resilient and laminated surfaces. By simulating real-world rolling and rotational movements, the instrument provides accurate assessment of caster performance and flooring durability. It is widely used in furniture manufacturing, flooring production, quality control laboratories, and research institutions.

Application

(1) Testing the wear resistance of chair casters on resilient floors.

(2) Evaluating caster performance on laminated floor coverings.

(3) Simulating repeated rolling and rotation of casters to assess floor durability.

(4) Quality control in office furniture manufacturing.

(5) Research and development of floor coverings and caster wheels.

(6) Comparative testing of different caster wheel materials and hardness.

(7) Assessment of floor coating longevity under repeated caster load.

(8) Testing of caster performance under variable load conditions.

Standards

(1) GB/T 11982.2 – Floor covering castor wear test method.

(2) GB/T 4085 – Resilient flooring wear resistance testing.

(3) BS EN 425 – Resilient floor coverings – Determination of resistance to wear by use of a caster.

(4) ISO 4918-2009 – Resilient floor coverings – Determination of wear resistance by castor chair.

(5) ASTM D6962 – Standard Test Method for Resistance of Floor Coverings to Chair Casters.

(6) BS EN 425-2002 – Chair caster testing on floor coverings.

(7) BS EN 985-2001 – Performance requirements for castor testing.

(8) ISO 10581-2011 – Resilient floor coverings – Specifications and testing.

(9) ANSI-NALFA-LF-01-2008.3.6 / ANSI-NALFA-LF-01-2011 – North American laminate flooring castor wear standards.

Features

(1) Standard Compliance: Fully complies with national and international standards for caster wear testing.

(2) Adjustable Load: Allows simulation of different caster weights up to 1500 lb (≈680 kg).

(3) Rotary Mechanism: Provides controlled rotation and movement for precise wear simulation.

(4) Flexible Platform: Floor replacement base is adjustable to accommodate different floor sizes.

(5) High Precision: Accurate caster spacing and rotation angles ensure repeatable results.

(6) Durable Construction: Robust frame and components suitable for laboratory and production testing.

(7) Automated Operation: The machine can stop automatically after the set test time or number of rotations.

Test Procedures

(1) Place the floor covering (resilient or laminated) onto the test platform.

(2) Install the casters on the turntable according to specified distances and spacing.

(3) Set the total load on the turntable to simulate real-life caster weight.

(4) Adjust the rotation speed and cycle parameters according to testing requirements.

(5) Start the machine; it will rotate the casters and move the platform according to the preset program.

(6) Upon completion of the test, stop the machine and remove the floor covering and casters.

(7) Inspect the flooring surface and caster wheels for wear and deformation.

(8) Record and analyze the results for product quality evaluation.

Maintenance Information

(1) Regularly inspect casters, turntable, and platform for wear or damage.

(2) Clean the platform and turntable after each test to remove debris.

(3) Check rotation mechanisms and bearings for smooth operation and lubricate as needed.

(4) Inspect electrical connections and control panels periodically for safety.

(5) Store the machine in a dry, clean environment when not in use.

(6) Follow operational safety procedures to prevent injury during testing.
