Labthink Ink Rub Tester is a specialized instrument used to evaluate the adhesion and durability of printed ink on various materials, such as paper, cardboard, plastic films, and labels. It simulates the rubbing action that printed surfaces may undergo during handling, transportation, or use. This testing helps assess the ink's resistance to abrasion and ensures that it adheres properly to the substrate.
This Ink Rub testing is crucial for industries like packaging, printing, and labeling to ensure that the printed information remains legible and intact throughout the product's lifecycle. It helps manufacturers select the appropriate printing methods, ink formulations, and substrate materials to achieve desired durability and performance.
