Transverse Abrasion Tester
The Nissan Abrasion Tester is used for evaluating a material's ability to resist abrading. It is a bench top machine and is available in either single station or four station models. This unit is for Nissan testing only!
Initially, the operator lifts all the abrasion weights to their upper position. Each weight is designed to toggle over in the up position and includes quick release pins for complete removal, if necessary. Double-stick adhesive tape is then used to attach the test samples to the lower test surface and the abrasion material is attached to the bottom of the abrasion weight(s) with the same tape while the weights are in the up position. The weight(s) are then lowered to the test position.
To initiate the test, the desired number of test cycles is entered on the cycle counter and the start button is pressed. Once the set cycle count is reached, the machine will automatically stop. Test samples are visually evaluated.
