Web: standard-groups.com
The Automatic Scratch Test Machine is a precision testing instrument designed to evaluate the adhesion strength and bonding performance of coatings with a thickness of ≥1 μm through controlled scratch loading. By applying well-defined mechanical loads and monitoring coating failure behavior, the system enables objective assessment of coating durability, interfacial strength, and scratch resistance. The fully motorized platform and automated data acquisition make the system suitable for both laboratory research and industrial quality control applications.
Application
This instrument is widely applicable to the evaluation of coating adhesion and scratch resistance in the following areas:
Coating research and development
Incoming material inspection
Production quality control
Surface engineering studies
Thin-film and hard-coating evaluation
Ceramic coating performance assessment
Industrial coating process monitoring
Typical test materials include:
Ceramic coatings
Hard protective coatings
Functional thin films
Metallic coatings
Polymer-based coatings
Standards
The system supports testing in accordance with the following international standards:
ASTM C1624 – Standard test method for adhesion strength and scratch resistance of ceramic and hard coatings
ISO 20502 – Coating materials – Scratch test method
DIN EN 1071-3 – Plastics and coatings – Determination of scratch and wear resistance, Part 3: Test method

Optical observation module
(Accessories are listed based on the functions described in your provided information.)
Test Procedures
Mount the coated specimen securely on the test stage.
Select the appropriate loading mode (progressive or constant).
Set the test parameters according to the selected standard.
Initiate the motorized scratch process.
Monitor coating behavior using optical microscopy, friction force, or acoustic emission.
Record critical load values at which coating failure occurs.
Generate and save the test report for further analysis.
Maintenance Information
To ensure stable and reliable operation:
Keep the XY platform clean and free from debris.
Regularly check the indenter tip for wear or damage.
Calibrate the load system periodically.
Avoid exposure to excessive vibration or dust.
Maintain proper environmental conditions during testing.
