Use:
Abraser is a test apparatus used to scratch a material surface to evaluate the relative resistance due to physical damage. The test is performed as an arm with weights meets with a sliding specimen platform that moves horizontally in reciprocating motion with the stationary tool holder. Test parameters such as stroke length (6 – 155mm), speed (3 – 75 cycles per minute) and load (1N – 24N maximum) are controlled so various settings for each test can be conducted. This instrument can perform the experiment up to three tests simultaneously. In ETRL, durability and SLIPs projects are conducted with this apparatus.
