Friction, Wear and Surface Property Analyzers
Key Benefits
Tremendous PrecisionSimple Operation and Data Collection
Unsurpassed Test Flexibility
The Kett Heidon line of surface analyzers provide unsurpassed performance measurement of friction coefficients (kinetic and static), adhesion, peel strength, tackiness, scratch strength and wear. The flagship 14DR Multi-Tester allows the user to provide a multitude of different physical characterizations on a single test station, reducing laboratory space requirements, simplifying operator training, and streamlining operation and data collection. All systems include an IBM PC with Kett software for data acquisition, analysis, and reporting. Systems are available for both linear and rotational testing. Specialized equipment can be developed upon request. All models include a one-year warranty and complimentary training.

This test station provides unsurpassed versatility in a single test instrument. A wide array of test fixtures may be placed on the base station to provide multiple tests on the same sample. The H14 included a touch screen and easy setup enabling any staff member to utilize it's capabilities.
Provides instant, non-destructive identification of cracks and faults in transparent and translucent polymer samples. Simply place the sample on the large test plate and view through the polarized tope window. Cracks and stress points are
immediately identified so that production issues can be documented, and immediately resolved. Also helps when defective parts need to be sorted and removed from a batch.
polarized grating may be rotated to optimize defect identification.
