Coefficient of Friction Tester (TL-COF-01)

Sürtünme Katsayısı Test Cihazı (TL-COF-01)

Measures the static and kinetic coefficient of friction of plastic film, flexible packaging, paper, board, textiles and similar flat materials by the horizontal sled method. One specimen is fixed to the test table and the other under a 200 g sled; a load cell measures friction force continuously. Static COF is taken from the first force peak, kinetic COF from the mean over the sliding interval. Separate recipes for ASTM D1894 and ISO 8295.

Technical specifications

  • Method: horizontal plane sled method; static and kinetic COF.
  • Force range: 0–5 N (5 N load cell, 0–10 V transmitter).
  • Standard sled: 200 ±1 g · 63.5 × 63.5 mm.
  • Stroke: max. 150 mm; 70 mm and 150 mm recipes.
  • Standard speeds: 100 / 150 mm/min (selected by recipe).
  • Test table: ≈ 300 × 150 mm, replaceable 304 stainless plate.
  • Housing: ≈ 430 × 320 × 190 mm (W × D × H).
  • Controller: 4.3-inch touchscreen PLC/HMI, recipe-based test control.
  • Drive: NEMA 23 closed-loop stepper motor and SFU1605 ball screw.
  • Safety: emergency stop, limits, drive and overforce alarms.
