Description
Overview
The MXD-02 is a laboratory coefficient of friction (COF) tester for measuring static and kinetic friction of films, sheets, rubber, paper, textiles, woven bags, metal-composite strips and other materials used in industrial quality control.
Designed for repeatable COF evaluation to support production process control, material selection and product qualification.
Key features
Accurate measurement of static and kinetic COF for each specimen with selectable test methods.
Compliance with ISO, ASTM, TAPPI and GB standards; multiple test modes selectable.
Preset and adjustable test speeds (100 mm/min, 150 mm/min) and two stroke options (70 mm, 150 mm).
Customizable sled masses (standard 200 g; optional 500 g) to match specific test protocols.
Sliding plane and sled treated by degaussing and remanence detection to reduce measurement error.
Micro-computer control with LCD, PVC operation panel and menu interface for straightforward operation.
Professional software for statistical analysis (single/group samples), curve overlay and historical-data comparison.
Data output via RS232 and micro-printer; compatible with Lystem™ Lab Data Sharing System for centralized data management.
Standards
ISO 8295
ASTM D1894
TAPPI T816
GB 10006
