SCUFF TESTER-RUB PROOFNESS TESTER-DIGITAL MODEL-AUTOSTOP AND RPM INDICATION

Compliance Standards

BS 3110

Applications:

Scuff tester is intended to evaluate the Rub Proof-ness of prints on paper or board. It can also be used to measure / evaluate Colour Transfer from printed / coated surface during rubbing. The application can be extended for measurement of abrasion resistance of some Plastic materials / Aluminum Foils.

Operating Principle:

In this machine, 2 samples of the same substrate are rubbed against each other in the same plane, under a constant pressure of 2 PSI and at a fixed speed of 60 RPM. The number of rubs are recorded using a non-contact type digital counter.

Salient Features:

1. Works as a great comparative of the variations in print quality between various batches or various suppliers
2. Higher Rub Resistance = better print quality.
3. Lower Rub Resistance = Poor print quality.
4. The highest degree of parallelism of disc samples
5. Accurate R.P.M. of rotating disks assured by High torque Step Synchronous motors
6. Very Low power consumption (Less than 100w).
7. No Gearbox. Hence, No Maintenance.
8. Compact but Sturdy Design.
9. Latest benchtop model with push button controls
10. Noise‑free scuff blower
11. Non‑contact type digital counter
12. Digital display of rubs
13. Auto ‑ stop facility at user ‑ defined counts
14. Standard rubbing weight = 2 psi
15. Power supply : 230 volts AC at 50 Hz (Fluctuation free power required)

Supplied with following accessories:

1. Sample Marking Templates (2 Inch and 4½ Inch Sample)
2. Glue Stick or similar quick drying adhesive

Note :

Round sample cutter for 50 and 110mm dia specimen (for easy cutting of samples) available at extra cost
