QM680R Coating Wear Tester

The QM680R coating wear tester (CR Coating Abrasion) evaluates the wear resistance of coatings on home appliances, printed stickers, carton surfaces and electronic housings. Under dry or wet conditions it reciprocates against the specimen surface at a constant load, measuring the coating's color transfer or surface scratching to rate coating wear resistance.

Coating Wear Resistance
Dry/Wet Reciprocating Rubbing Test

The QM680R coating wear tester drives a rubbing head to reciprocate against coating surfaces under dry or wet conditions at a constant load, simulating contact-rubbing wear on coatings in product use. The head (Sled) is an interchangeable adapter; the specimen platform and pressure load clamp are both adjustable; test speed, counter and time are settable, and test methods can be stored and edited.

From appliance housings to electronic-device coatings - coatings are repeatedly rubbed in daily use, and wear resistance directly affects appearance durability and protection. Dual dry/wet operation simulates different environments, and the interchangeable head suits different rubbing media.

Designed for coating wear evaluation - dry/wet reciprocation plus interchangeable head; appliance/electronic coating durability testing.
