Full Description
Coefficient of Friction Tester
Model: C0008
This extremely easy to use IDM Coefficient of Friction Tester is used to determine the static and kinetic friction of plastic film, sheeting, paper and other sheeted material.
The Coefficient of Friction Tester can measure Static COF (peak) from a resting position and continue to move testing surfaces in a relative motion to give an accurate kinetic COF (dynamic) result.
This COF Tester employs a stationary sled with a moving plane. The test plane automatically returns to the start position after testing is complete. With the option of a computer software package to record data, the IDM COF Tester has proven itself to be a fast, reliable and accurate method of determining coefficient of friction in various areas of manufacturing.
