OVERVIEW

The term scuffing is the rubbing of two materials against each other. Scuff Resistance Tester is used to evaluate the rub resistance (i.e. the damage which has taken place through rubbing) of labels and general printed matter.

Presto Scuff Resistance Tester rubs two printed surfaces against each other (face-to-face) in the same plane, at the same speed under a constant rubbing pressure. The scuff tester can be used in Paper & Packaging industries to evaluate color transfer from printed or coated surfaces during rubbing. It is designed and produced according to ASTM Standard and measures the number of double strokes required to cause Fuzz (distortion of appearence) and Peel (actual rupture of the surface).

 

With the help of Presto’s Scuff Resistance Tester, the manufacturers can easily ensure the best quality of printed products to the clients.
