Abrasion-resistance test device crockmeter GX-C3S

Product Introduction
Designed according to international standards, the GX-C3S detects abrasion resistance of printing ink layers and surface coatings. It evaluates print rub resistance, ink adhesion and coating durability with high accuracy to support quality control and material optimization in printing and surface finishing processes.

Test Principle
Rub printed samples against clean offset paper under a fixed load and preset rubbing cycles. After testing, measure specimen optical density or visual change and compare with initial values to calculate ink abrasion resistance.

Applicable Standards
ASTM D5264, TAPPI T830
