Film Coefficient of Friction Testers |
 |
Meets specifications of ASTM D1894 Standard Test Method for Static and Kinetic Coefficients of Friction of Plastic Film and TAPPI T-549. |

FX-7100 shown |
The Film Coefficient of Friction Tester is a full featured tester for film and sheet materials. In the past, film and sheet producers and converters have had the choice of off-line friction testers which are manually operated stand-alone machines, or expensive computer-operated machines. Now you can have both in a single instrument.

Features
|
 |
- Full-featured digital-based Friction Tester
- LCD-digital display force gage with integral keypad
- Can be run as a stand-alone machine or a computer-assisted tester with optional FX-7200 Quality Control Software for automatic calculation and graphical display of static and kinetic friction data.
- 200 gram force scale standard
- Quality Control Software FX-7200 has a wide range of statistical and graphical information including static coefficient of friction and kinetic coefficient of friction, with the ability to edit and define the field of data included in the kinetic friction calculation. Many application-specific functions make this an invaluable addition to your film, foil, converting or paper coefficient of friction tester.
- Two models available:
- Model FX-7100 COF - Fixed sled speed of 6 inches per minute
- Model FX-7100-VSC dual-purpose COF/Peel/Seal
- Variable speed sled, with speed range from 1 to 20 inches per minute.
- Reversible-direction motor allows higher force testing for COF, Peel, Seal and Tensile up to 45 lb (20 kg) force.
- Add a second force scale (optional) with measurement ranges including 500 gram, 1 kg, 2 kg, 5 kg or 20 kg for dual-purpose test capability.
- Manual mechanical grips included.
- Ideal for use with benchtop heat sealers for seal strength testing.
