| Collection Device | Recovers fallen abrasives and wear particles |
Testing Principle
During testing, standardized abrasives fall freely through the conduit under gravity from a specified height, continuously impacting the sample surface. As the test progresses, the coating gradually wears. By measuring the coating thickness or wear per unit area before and after the test, you can evaluate the coating’s abrasion resistance. This method effectively simulates particle-induced wear in real-life use.
Operation Instructions
Check that the conduit, hopper, and fixture are securely installed before testing.
Select and load the specified amount of abrasive according to the standard.
Ensure the sample is firmly fixed, with abrasives impacting the correct test area.
Never open protective devices during testing to avoid abrasive scattering.
Adjust test height, abrasive type, and cycle count according to the relevant standard.
Experimental Procedure
Prepare the sample according to the standard and measure initial coating thickness.
Secure the sample in the fixture.
Add the specified type and amount of abrasive to the hopper.
Adjust the conduit height to ensure vertical abrasive fall.
Start the device and perform the falling sand abrasion test for the specified cycles or time.
After testing, measure the coating thickness or wear amount.
Calculate the abrasion resistance according to standard methods and record the results.
