STANDARD TEST – ABRASION TESTER

Leírás

The ST-BA Belt Abrasion Tester utilizes a rotating pin-on-rotating-belt approach to assess the

abrasive wear resistance of materials. In this setup, the rotating pin is pressed against a moving

abrasive belt under a controlled normal load applied via a dead weight, ensuring consistent and

repeatable wear testing. A motorised linear slide mechanism ensures the pin progressively moves

over fresh abrasive material along a prescribed wear track length, closely mimicking real-world

wear conditions.

To maintain accurate test conditions, the drive system regulates the rotational speed of both the

pin and the belt. The indexing slide guides the rotating pin along the belt, ensuring consistent

wear distribution. Successive wear passes are positioned to avoid overlap, allowing the reference

pin to be tested on an unused abrasive path parallel to the test pin’s track.

This setup provides a precise and standardized method for comparing material wear performance.

It is ideal for testing metals, ceramics, polymers, and coatings in research, quality control, and

industrial applications, fully compliant with the ASTM G132 standard.
