Sand Falling Tester

The sand falling tester measures the amount of sand required to wear a coating down to the substrate by controlling sand particles falling freely from a fixed height to impact the coating surface. It is used to evaluate the wear resistance of materials such as coatings and inks, and to determine the durability of coatings in quality inspection and research and development.
Selection
When selecting a sand-falling tester, it is essential to consider the compatibility between the type of sand grains and the applicable standards, as the precision of flow control directly affects the repeatability of tests. The instrument's structure should facilitate ease of operation and maintenance, and the weight configuration must cover common testing ranges. Additionally, it is crucial to verify the calibration capabilities of the metrology organization and compare the abrasion resistance of sand tubes across different models.
