SledCutter 295 XVII testing equipment for quality management High Economic Efficiency caused by four independent Cutting Edges Standardized Cross Cutting Tests on different Coating Materials

Principle of Testing The adhesion of a coating on a base material is not only a mechanical property defining the bond between coating and substrate, but it is also of particular importance with regard to the corrosion protection, since areas of poor adhesion can easily be affected by corrosion. For many years already the cross cutting is the best known and the most frequently used adhesion test method for different coating materials on various substrates! The desired scratching force is set by moving and fixing the rider weight sliding on the load arm, whereby the possible setting range is 2...

Technical Data The square pattern that is obtained can be evaluated visually by examining the way in which the coating has broken away from the base material (along the cutting edges and/or complete squares),and this can be compared with schematic representations in the standard. The result will be furnished with a judgement scale’s code (e.g. with the aid of the evaluation table in accordance with EN ISO 2409 on the last page of this Dimensions (LxWxH) approx. 600 x 400 x 240 mm Scratching force approx. 2 - 40 N (with additional weight approx. 60 N) Max. scratch length approx. 220 mm Max. dimensions...

1) Since 1994, the European standard EN ISO 2409 replaces the national standards DIN 53151, BS 3900:E6, NF T 30-38, NEN 5337 and SIS 184172. 4) The cross hatch test is intensified by a subsequent deep drawing test acc. to EN ISO 1520, which can be performed using the ERICHSEN Cupping Test Machines, Models 200 and 202 EM Determination of Cross Hatch Cut Classifications Cuts’ appearance Please also request our literature for the CrossScan 295 XVI. The Automatic Cross Hatch Cut Rating System with evaluation software determines the percentage (coating) material loss in the defined area of the cross...
