About Tile Abrasion Testing Machine
Tile Abrasion Testing Machine
This is used for determination of resistance to wear for Cement & Concrete flooring tiles. Tiles specimen of size 7.06 cm x 7.06 cm is pressed face-wise under specific load on a grinding path and abrasive powder is evenly spread on the rotating grinding disc the second parallel side of the tile is subjected to wear for similar number of rotations. The wear of the tile is measured on a thickness gauge specifically made for the purpose. The machine consists of a disc rotating at a speed of 30 R.P.M. in a circular tray. A bracket is provided to hold the specimen. A counter balance lever loads the specimen. Load applied is 30 kgf funnel is fitted to evenly spread abrasive powder on the grinding path. A Preset Counter automatically stops the machine after 22 revolutions.This counter is Re-adjustable. The machine works on 440 V A.C. Three Phase electrical supply. On Request machine to operate on 230 V A.C. Supply can also be supplied.

FAQs of Tile Abrasion Testing Machine:
Q: How does the Tile Abrasion Testing Machine function for tile wear assessment?
A: The machine operates by placing a tile sample in a brass holder, applying a 30 kg abrasive load using the 200 mm diameter disc, while the turntable rotates the sample. This process simulates surface wear, allowing users to measure abrasion resistance over preset cycles.
Q: What is the measurement range and accuracy of this testing machine?
A: It can measure tile abrasion up to 50 cycles with 100% accuracy, ensuring precise results for laboratory testing and compliance with IS:1237 and IS:15622 standards.
Q: When should laboratories use this machine for tile testing?
A: Laboratories employ this machine when evaluating the durability and wear resistance of tiles, especially for quality control in manufacturing or research environments where standardized abrasion tests are required.
Q: Where is the Tile Abrasion Testing Machine typically installed or used?
A: The machine is designed for use in laboratory settings, manufacturing plants, or research institutes focusing on construction materials, especially tiles.
Q: What benefits does this machine offer over conventional abrasion testers?
A: It provides enhanced efficiency, quieter operation, and greater accuracy thanks to its powder-coated finish, robust MS body, brass sample holder, and reliable analog display. Its compliance with recognized standards further ensures trustworthiness.
Q: How do you operate and process a test using this machine?
A: Begin by securing a 7.06 x 7.06 cm tile in the sample holder, setting the required cycles on the preset counter. Start the machine, allowing the motor to rotate the sample under abrasive load. Results are observed on the analog display once the test is complete.
Q: What are the main usage and benefit for exporters, manufacturers, and suppliers?
A: By utilizing this machine, exporters, manufacturers, and suppliers can certify tile products per global standards, enhance their quality control processes, and offer proof of durability to clients and regulatory bodies.
