Benefits of using friction coefficient Testers in the plastics industry

The coefficient of friction is one of the widely used properties of packaging materials and can help you determine the force required to transfer the material. This property of the material will depend on how the two materials interact . Different types of plastic materials have different coefficients of friction. Therefore, you need the correct test material to determine the value of this property of the material.

Introduction

The coefficient of friction Tester is one of the commonly used testing instruments, which can help you determine the surface properties of plastics, flexible packaging films, sheets and other materials. This test can be performed under specified test conditions to help you measure static and dynamic coefficients of friction. Helps reveal the stackability of plastic films. When the thickness of the flexible film is not uniform, it will result in non-uniform film strength. Therefore, you should use a coefficient of friction Tester to determine how much pressure the plastic film can withstand without damage .

features

3 major benefits

As we discussed above, the coefficient of friction is determined as the force moving two surfaces relative to each other divided by the force holding them together. So, you can easily determine if a material is suitable for grip requirements using this amazing piece of laboratory testing equipment.

• Helps you easily view coefficient of friction values for different materials.

• The specimen will not slip. You can use flying screws to tighten specimens evenly without any rings.

• It features a microprocessor-based display for viewing highly accurate test results.
