MXD-01A Coefficient of Friction Tester is strictly based on ASTM D1894 standard, and is professionally applicable to the determination of static and kinetic coefficients of friction of plastic films, sheets, rubber, paper and paper board, PP woven bags, fabrics, metal-plastic composite belts for communication cables, convey belts, wood, coatings, brake pads, windshield wipers, shoe materials and tires. By testing the frictional properties of materials, the technical indexes could be controlled to meet requirements for production. Besides, the instrument can be used to measure smoothness of cosmetics, eye drops and other daily products.
Features
- Static and Kinetic coefficients of friction can be tested simultaneously
- The functions of automatic delay timing and automatic COF zeroing ensure enough touching time between tested specimens
- The sliding plane and the sled are treated by degaussing and remanence detection which effectively reduce the system errors
- The instrument is controlled by micro-computer with LCD, PVC operation panel and menu interface, which is convenient for customers to test or view the test data
- Top quality parts and components made by world famous brands are used to ensure reliable overall product performance
- Professional operating software supports the automatic judgment of smoothness status, and statistical analysis of group specimen test results
- Micro-printer can automatically print the test reports of single tested specimen or groups of tested specimens
- Equipped with RS232 port for convenient PC connection and data transfer
- Supports LystemTM Lab Data Sharing System for uniform and systematic data management
