Coating and Plating Adhesion Tester

The coating adhesion tester applies mechanical force vertically to pull the sample, measuring the force required to separate the coating from the substrate. It is used to evaluate the bonding strength of coatings and is commonly employed in quality control within the paint and electroplating industries.
Selection
When selecting, consider the compatibility with testing standards, ensure the measurement range covers the adhesion range of the sample, confirm that the fixtures are suitable for different substrate shapes, verify that the equipment accuracy meets error requirements, and ensure ease of operation aligns with personnel skills.
