Razor and cutter blade sharpness measurement device Application Testing sharpness and durability of razor and cutter blades for quality control and in research and development. Laboratory environment for random sample testing, applied by razor blade manufacturers or razor blade dealers. Also available in an automatic version for in-process measurements in blade production Features - for sharpness measurement and testing of razor blades (e.g. double edge blades, flat razor blades, curved razor blades, razor blades with carrier, callus razor blades) - for sharpness measurement and testing of cutter blades - for testing the coating resistance of coated blades (e.g. PTFE) - for edge retention and durability tests - for research and development - for quality control - destructive testing - force transducer with high accuracy - high-speed data acquisition system for fast cutting processes - automatic feeding system for the test medium - different blade holders - adjustment options for blade spacing and blade angle - data analysis software The sharpness and durability measurement is based on the repeated cutting and separating of a filamentary test medium. The force required to cut through the test medium is measured. The characteristic cutting force curves are evaluated and allow conclusions to be drawn about cutting characteristics of the blades, e.g. initial sharpness, coating resistance, edge durability. The blade to be tested is placed in a blade holder and fixed in place. The blade holder can be adapted for different blade shapes (double edge blades, flat razor blades, curved razor blades, razor blades with carrier, callus razor blades, cutter blades, ...).
