The
Scrub Abrasion Tester was designed to simulate wear damage caused
by everyday use. This method is useful for testing interior paints,
wall coverings, carpets, floor tiles, polishes, bath tubs, shower
stalls and furniture. The instrument can also be used to test efficiencies
of detergents or cleansers and/or test the durability of a cleaning
device (i.e. sponge).
The
tester reciprocates an abrasive force linearly over the sample.
The drive mechanism consists of a gearhead motor driving the motor
drive pulley gear. The rotary motion of this gear drives a smaller
gear, the chain drive pulley, using a timing belt. The smaller gear
drives a set of sprockets and continuous loop mechanism. The cable
pair ends are attached to the virtual center of the chain, transforming
the rotary motion of the chain into the reciprocating linear motion.
- Reciprocating
linear motion at 37.0 ±1 cycles per minute with a constant
speed over a 10 inch travel
- Utilizes
a brush, sponge, abrasive pad or paper to simulate real life situations
- Enclosed
electrical and mechanical components permit dry or wet testing
- Preset
count-down counter with automatic shut-off and standard cycle
counter provided for versatile testing
- Heavy-duty
drive system allows for easy maintenance and a long-life
