TabWear Abrasion Tester - TNG1008

The TNG1008 TabWear Abrasion Tester is designed to assess the abrasion resistance of various materials. It operates by simulating the mechanical action of rubbing, scraping, or erosion to determine how well a material withstands these forces. The instrument is suitable for testing materials such as fabrics, leather, rubber, paper, travel cases, carpets, cardboard, clothing, glass, tile, metal, paints, and varnishes. It supports testing in accordance with ASTM D3884, ASTM D4060, and ISO 5470. The tester features a single head configuration with a wear round centre spacing of 52.4 mm and can operate at gyration speeds of 60±1 or 72±1 rpm. The counter provides a range of 0-999,999 cycles. The device is powered by 220/110 V at 50/60 Hz. It is equipped with optional load weights of 250g and 750g, allowing for combined weights of 250g, 500g, or 1000g. The TNG1008 is engineered for accurate and repeatable test results, ensuring reliable data for material evaluation.

Accurate test results

We carefully select grinding wheels and robust test arm components. Both go through strict quality control. This is to ensure that they are high-quality and stable. This is to ensure the accuracy of Taber abrasion tests.

High repeatability

We used the same set of samples and machines. We ran many tests. The results of the abrasion resistance test were the same.

High reproducibility

We tested the same set of samples. Or, we tested different machines of the same model. We did this many times. The test results are the same each time.

Longer service life

Loading and unloading grinding wheels is very simple and fast. Key parts are easy to replace. The abrasion test can be run by color touch screen. It is easy and efficient.

DC vacuum nozzle with adjustable height can accommodate different sample thicknesses.

The TabWear Abrasion Tester is also called the TabWear Abrasion Machine. It is a type of abrasion testing machine. It tests how well materials resist wear. You can use it for fabrics, leather, rubber, and paper. It can also test travel cases, carpets, cardboard, and clothing. Besides, you can also test glass, tile, metal, paints, varnishes, etc.

What is the TaberWear Abrasion test? What is the principle of the TaberWear abrasion tester?

Taber abrasion test is a test to determine materials’ resistance to abrasion. Abrasion resistance is the ability of a material to withstand rubbing. It can also withstand scraping or erosion. It’s defined as its ability to withstand mechanical action. The methods can test metals, composites, ceramics, and thick coatings. These coatings include weld overlays and thermal spray. Taber created the first Taber Abrasion Testing Machine. It has become a top way to test how resistant materials are to wear. You can check Taber’s abrasions on many different materials. You can use the Taber Tester to check base metals, ceramics, polymers, and fabrics. Taber abrasion tests are often performed on coated materials.

An example is a buried pipe. We test the pipe’s coating. We do this to ensure it can withstand wear and tear from soil and other ground materials.

What is the Abrasion of the Material Abrasion resistance of the material, also known as wear resistance, refers to the ability of materials to resist mechanical wear. Taking fabric or leather as an example, the finished product is often subjected to the repeated friction of other objects in the process of use, resulting in the loss and fading of the articles, thus reducing the user experience of the articles and shortening the life of the articles. There are many abrasion test methods, such as the Taber abrasion resistance test for plastic material, paper material, leather material, and so on, which is one of the most common testing methods. Test Principle of the Taber Abrasion Resistance Place the test sample on a rotating platform and the sample is worn by rotating friction motion with two Taber abrasion wheels under a certain load.
