COF Tester For Plastic Film Pack Printing Paper Friction Coefficient Testing Machine Of Carton Dynamic Friction Tester
A crucial aspect of material testing, the coefficient of friction (COF), delineates the resistance between two surfaces. Lower COF values indicate easier initiation of sliding, while higher values signify increased resistance. In the realm of packaging film, COF determines the 'slipperiness' of the material when interfacing with packaging machinery or other substances, influencing performance across creation, transit, and storage phases.
The Importance of Testing Coefficient of Friction
Understanding the COF of film is important for optimizing performance. This testing ensures efficient material handling during production, minimizes friction-induced damages during transportation, and facilitates stable storage conditions. Adherence to standards like ASTM D1894 and ISO 8295 guarantees industry-accepted testing methodologies, promoting reliability and consistency in results.
Application
Our COF-01 Coefficient of Friction Tester is tailored to measure static and kinetic COF across a diverse spectrum of materials. It caters to plastic films, rubber, paper, and an array of fabrics, among others. Notably, it's adaptable to accommodate various materials and testing standards, ensuring versatility and comprehensive assessment capabilities.
Standards
ASTM D1894, ISO 8295, TAPPI T816, GB 10006
Calculation Formula
COF calculation involves dividing the force necessary for surface movement by the perpendicular force. The formula, μ = f ÷ N, where μ denotes COF, f represents frictional force, and N signifies normal force, elucidates both static (μs) and kinetic (μd) COF dynamics. In packaging, static COF governs bag stacking and cartoning, while kinetic COF pertains to continuous film processing on machinery.
