Maintenance and Calibration Taber
Preventive, curative maintenance, calibration of abrasimeters, scratch testers and other Taber equipment
The 'Test Taber' provides reliable data within minutes. Used to assess a material's resistance to wear, a flat sample is mounted on a turntable that rotates on a vertical axis. As the platen rotates, contact of the sample against the sliding rotation of two grinding wheels causes wear while a vacuum system removes loose wear debris during testing. The abrasion marks form a pattern of crossed arcs in a circular band that covers an area of approximately 30 cm².
Taber 1700 single-track or Taber 1750 dual-track rotary abrasimeter for performing accelerated wear tests on a wide variety of materials.
• Display of the following test parameters: mode, test duration, cycles, plate speed, aspiration level.
• Choice of 60 or 72 rpm rotation speed.
• 4 possible evaluation methods: visual, loss of mass, loss of volume and depth of wear.

Pocket devices for testing the hardness and scratch resistance of flat or curved surfaces (coatings, varnishes, plastics, etc.) carried out using a tungsten carbide tip Ø 1 mm on which is exerted a adjustable pressure.
Measure the force required to pull out by hydraulic traction a known diameter of coating on metal, wood, concrete and other rigid substrates.
Initially developed to meet automotive specifications, this device is ideal for evaluating plastics, paints, floor coverings, etc. Five independent tungsten carbide tools mounted on more or less loaded sliding axes exert a vertical load on the sample to be tested, positioned on a table moving by pneumatic system.
The stud cutting tool is an instrument specially designed to remove adhesive residue around the stud and to cut the loose coating for adhesion tests. Removing too much glue by hand and cutting the loose coating from the substrate is heavy and difficult work especially when inspectors need to perform multiple tests per day. This can cause sore wrists and...
Abrasimeter designed to assess the properties of flat or profiled materials requiring an extended test load and stroke length, it is particularly suitable for testing the resistance of a coating to washing with a scouring pad.
These 5 standard blocks (10, 20, 40, 65 and 90 type D) can be used as comparison blocks or as a reference check for the type D durometer.
Model dedicated to the abrasion resistance evaluation of seat belts, straps, harnesses, etc. nylon, polyester, leather, polymers and other soft materials.
Multifunction stainless steel gauge for coating inspection.
Determine the minimum load necessary for the appearance of a regular scratch on a rotating specimen.
Used to measure the resistance to surface abrasion and scratching of materials (plastics, metals, glasses, lenses, etc.) placed in an oscillating tank filled with abrasive (silica sand, Alundum ZF-12 sand, etc.) ).
Determine the rate of elongation, elasticity, resistance to cracking and peeling of paints and varnishes on a metal support by winding around a cylindrical or conical mandrel.
The standard Wearaser support Ref. 130852 accepts Wearaser Ø ¼ ”abrasive tips (Ø 6.35 mm). Other abrasive tips available: - Wearaser Jumbo Ø ½ ”tips (Ø 12.7 mm, Wearaser Jumbo holder required) - Weardisc Ø ¾ ”discs (Ø 19 mm, universal support required)
4 models of abrasive tip supports are available: - Wearaser holder in stainless steel (98 g) Ref. 130852 (supplied as standard) - Aluminum Wearaser holder (28 g) Ref. 131852 - Wearaser plastic holder (16 g) Ref. 131852-1 - Wearaser Jumbo holder (43 g) Ref. 131862 (for Wearaser Jumbo Ø ½ ”abrasive tips).
Determine the impact resistance and flexibility of coatings by studying the deformation caused by a falling steel mass on the coated specimen.
The CAT Comprehensive Abrasion Test is a universal testing machine for testing the abrasion resistance of coatings on beverage cans and flat materials. The reciprocating motion mimics abrasion damage to coatings during transport in the field. Equivalent to the Gavarti 'GV-CAT' system. The CAT abrasimeter is used for quality control in coating testing...
