GT-7012-M8A
Martindale Abrasion Tester

The GT-7012-M8A is designed to assess the abrasion resistance of textile fabrics, shoe uppers, shoe linings, and shoe soles.
This instrument allows up to 8 specimens to be tested simultaneously. The specimens are abraded against abradants in a Lissajous pattern for a specified number of cycles.


PRINCIPLE: The Martindale tester is specifically designed to determine the durability and resistance of textile fabrics, shoe uppers, shoe linings, and shoe soles to abrasion. During a Martindale test, specimens are subjected to repeated abrasion in a Lissajous pattern until a specified number of cycles is reached. 

BROAD MATERIAL SUITABILITY: Ideal for fitting materials commonly used in the textile and footwear industries, such as textile fabrics, shoe uppers, shoe linings, and shoe soles.

MULTIPLE TEST STATIONS: To enhance work efficiency, the GT-7012-M8A features multiple test stations, allowing up to 8 specimens to be tested simultaneously.

VARIOUS RUBBING DIRECTIONS: By rubbing specimens in a Lissajous pattern, the GT-7012-M8A simulates the effects of rubbing in various directions.

WEARING SIMULATION: Simulates daily wear to ensure the performance and service life of materials in real-world scenarios.

ADJUSTABLE RUBBING CYCLES: Allows operators to set and modify the number of cycles, ensuring test conditions conform to referenced standards.

ABRASION RESISTANCE ASSESSMENT: Enables operators to assess material performance against abrasion by observing the degree of wear on sample subjected to abrasion testing.

STANDARD CONFORMITY: Ensures that products meet industry standards and satisfy quality expectations in the market.
