Precision instrument evaluates material stiffness.
The Taber Stiffness Tester utilizes a two directional pendulum-type
weighing system to evaluate material stiffness, flexural strength,
resiliency and elasticity properties. Force is applied to the lower
end of the specimen by a pair of rollers attached to the driving disc.
The resulting torque tilts the pendulum from its vertical position and
a Taber Stiffness Unit reading (g•cm) is taken automatically when
the pendulum mark aligns with the appropriate driving disc mark
(*1/2° or *5°). Predetermined sample length, deflection angle and
rate of loading provide accurate and reproducible test results.
Onboard computer automates testing.
A high resolution optical encoder and a non-contacting photo
sensor are incorporated to make this instrument fully automatic.
The onboard computer calculates and records testing data
(average; standard deviation; high/low; time; date; and a
user-defined label), and converts stiffness readings to the
appropriate user selected stiffness range. Test results are
displayed on a 4 x *0 character display screen, and can be
printed, stored or downloaded to a PC.
Test a wide range of products.
Nine distinct setups permit the testing of very delicate to extremely
rigid materials. Taber Stiffness Testers will evaluate paper, light
metallic foil, laminated plastic, cardboard, wire, and other flexible
materials up to 5.5mm (0.**9 inches) thick that do not exceed
*0,**0 Taber Stiffness Units.
