TILE ABRASION TESTING MACHINE AZA0992
The AZA0992 Tile Abrasion Testing Machine from Azalab is a precision laboratory instrument designed to evaluate the surface wear resistance of flooring tiles. It simulates real-world foot traffic and mechanical abrasion to determine the durability of ceramic, vitrified, and cement concrete tiles.
This machine is manufactured in compliance with IS 1237 and IS 13630 (Part 11) standards, making it ideal for quality control, research, and compliance testing in construction material laboratories.
Purpose of Testing
This test determines the depth of wear (in mm) on the tile surface after a fixed number of revolutions under an abrasive load. It helps manufacturers, contractors, and consultants verify whether tiles meet durability requirements for high-traffic applications.
Description
Key Applications
-
Quality control for ceramic and vitrified tile manufacturers
-
Construction material testing laboratories
-
Consultants, architects, and QA/QC contractors
-
Civil engineering and academic institutions
Working Principle
The tile specimen is fixed in the holding tray on a rotating cast iron disc.
A calibrated quantity of abrasive powder (typically aluminum oxide) is fed onto the surface.
The disc rotates at a constant speed, subjecting the tile to controlled abrasion.
After the preset number of revolutions, the depth of wear is measured using a depth gauge.
Main Features
-
Heavy-duty cast iron base with steel enclosure
-
Precision rotating disc mechanism
-
Digital / mechanical revolution counter (up to 10,000 counts)
-
Uniform abrasive feeding system
-
Dust-guard safety enclosure
-
Low vibration, smooth motorized operation
