Details
The Abrasion Tester is a specialized system used to evaluate abrasive wear behaviour of coatings and bulk materials under dry sand and slurry abrasion conditions. It involves introduction of abrasive particles or slurry between a rotating wheel and the test specimen under controlled load and speed, enabling accurate simulation of real-world wear environments. This system is widely used for material ranking, wear mechanism studies, and development of protective coatings for industrial applications.
