Paint Film Scratch Testing Machine

The paint film scratch tester uses loaded weights to move a stylus at a constant speed across the coating surface, and the adhesion of the coating is determined based on the load value at which scratches appear. It is used to evaluate the scratch resistance of materials such as paints and plastics, verifying the durability of coatings in quality inspection and research and development.
Selection
When selecting, consider matching the hardness range of the material being tested with the instrument's load capacity, and ensure the stylus material is wear-resistant. Check the smoothness of movement and data recording methods. Choose the worktable specifications based on the size of daily samples, and ensure the power supply is compatible with the laboratory environment.
