RT-01 Rub Tester

RT-01 is professionally applicable to the abrasion resistance test of surface coating layers of printed materials, e.g. ink layer or photosensitive (PS) coating. This instrument conforms to ASTM D5264 & TAPPI T830. Benefits :

  • High accuracy
  • Easy interpretation
  • Versatile applications
  • Paper Printing Materials
    Test the abrasion resistance of ink layers of printed materials and effectively analyze the problems of poor abrasion resistance and ink layer falling off
  • Photosensitive Coating Layers
    Test the abrasion resistance of photosensitive coating layers and effectively analyze the problems of lower printing force of PS boards.
  • 4 test modes of dry rub, wet rub, wet transfer, and wet smear and 4 different test speeds to meet different test requirements
  • Dual stations with arc movement structure can test equivalent or distinct specimens simultaneously
  • Intelligent design of power failure memory and buzzer reminding ensure the safety of test operation
  • The instrument is controlled by micro-computer, with PVC operation panel, LCD and menu interface, which is convenient for users to operate or view the test data
