ASTM F2497 05 scuff tester for accurate scuff resistance testing

In the printed products manufacturing firm, the manufacturers usually face the challenge of printed materials getting faded, scratched, or scuffed easily. When these materials get shipped they may experience wear and tear that may result in damage to product quality. To make sure that your printed materials like labels, thermoplastic films, etc. will stay at their best quality, it is important for printing manufacturers to conduct scuff resistance tests on them.

We at Presto being Asia’s No.1 manufacturer of lab testing instruments has designed a scuff resistance tester that can easily test the rubbing resistance of materials. By testing the scuff resistance of printed materials, the Presto Scuff Resistance Tester helps ensure that the printed materials meet quality standards and will be able to withstand normal wear and tear. Read on to discover everything about this vital packaging testing instrument.

What is the scuff resistance test and how it is useful for printed materials quality testing?

The scuff resistance test is used to determine the ability of printed material to resist abrasion. The test involves rubbing the samples like labels, or other printed materials against another surface to test their abrasion-resistance properties.

By performing abrasion testing on printed labels, manufacturers can evaluate the durability of different label materials and coatings, and select the most suitable options for their intended application. This can help to ensure that labels remain legible and effective throughout their life cycle, reducing the need for replacement and potential errors or safety hazards.

With the help of the Presto scuff resistance tester, one can easily evaluate the rub resistance of the materials and ensure that the materials delivered will not get scuffed easily.

Now, let us discuss brief information about the Presto scuff resistance tester.
