 A
precision bearing on the spline shaft creates a "free-floating
head". As the arm strokes in a linear motion, this "free-floating
head" follows the contours of the specimen - curved or flat.
To enable you to simulate real world conditions, test parameters
can be altered so optimal settings for each material can be established.
The Taber® Linear Abraser allows you to select stroke
length, speed, and load.
Testing
versatility is achieved with interchangeable attachments. The collet
assembly comes standard with each Linear Abraser, and is used for
wear testing. Other attachments,
which are sold separately include:
- Scratch
Kit - perform single or multiple pass scratch testing with
a diamond tool
- Scratch/Mar Tips - perform single or multiple pass scratch
testing with 1mm or 7mm spherical tips
- Coin Holder Attachment - perform coin scrape testing
- Jumbo Wearaser Collet - perform wear testing with Taber's
1/2" diameter abradants
- Crockmeter
Kit - perform color transfer or rub testing
- Universal
Kit - perform 'real world' testing by attaching virtually
anything to this attachment and abrade against your specimen (or
visa-versa)
- Precision Knuckle Attachment - adjustable mounting
angle of 180°, mounting stud and nut allow you to attach
all types of materials to abrade against your specimen (or visa-versa)
If
you have a unique application, Taber has the ability to manufacture
or develop custom attachments.
For
convenience, the Linear Abraser includes two (2) operating modes,
RUN and REFACE. During normal testing, the mode should be set to
RUN. The REFACE mode is provided for wear testing, and allows the
user to reface the abradant without having to reprogram the number
of cycles.
The
Linear Abraser is CE Marked, and is 115V/230V switchable.
