Wear and Surface Property Analyzers

Our most advanced and versatile model that replaces the flagship H14 and H14DR. This instrument contains a touchpanel interface. The 14DR provides immediate, accurate readings of many types of property measurements. By being able to measure static and dynamic friction coefficients, adhesion, scratch hardness, stickiness, tensile strength, and peel resistance with one unit, lab space is minimized and a consistent interface for measurements and data collection are provided. Various tests can be performed by changing test fixtures (jigs) and selecting the test parameters on the integrated computer software.

Used in peeling and tensile strength assessment. The H17 contains a test piece that clamps on both sides, moves at the same speed, and evaluates the resistance on the object. This adhesion and peeling resistance tester is simple to use and contains the ability to measure a wide range of contents.

Similar to the H18L, the H22 allows a ball indenter to be loaded in addition to scratch needle loading. Thin to thick film adhesion, real-time measurement of friction (due to abrasion), surface scratch hardness and tackiness can be evaluated by this system.

Disk-on-disk and ball-on-disk friction coefficients and abrasion can be measured with the H20. A disk or ball indenter is loaded onto the test piece and connected to a highly-sensitive straingauge. As the turntable rotates, the load is transmitted to the PC software to display measurements up to 999,999 revolutions. Rotational speed can be set between 10 and 600 rpm for varied analyses. Even delicate changes in friction can be readily identified and quantified for coating assessment or lubricant evaluation.
