Taber Reciprocating Testing Machines

Taber Reciprocating Testing Machines consists of a rotary platform to place test specimen, a pair of articulated arms with friction wheel, a motor used to drive the turntable rotation, a counter used to set the rotation number of turntable with the automatic stop function, and a suction device used to take away the debris.By cahaIt’s suitable for a variety of materials’ test, such as papers, textiles, rubbers, coatings and many other tests due to the replacement of different wear wheels.

Instrument principle:
The tested product is fixed on a horizontal table and is worn under the specified abrasive and load with the horizontal movement of the aquarium. Using the principle of the lever, the other end of the test arm fits the weight to maintain the balance of the test arm to ensure the accuracy of the sample surface load and the reliability of the test results.

Abrasive and load rack height is adjustable to suit the test of different height samples.In addition, according to the different requirements of customers, the instrument uses different friction media to test the wear resistance of different products.
