STANDARDIZED TESTS FOR CERAMIC TILES AND BRICKS
AP/18 and AP/18/LC DEPTH ABRASION TESTERS
AP/10 MODEL ABRASIMETER
Instrument for determining depth abrasion resistance of unglazed ceramic tiles. UNI EN ISO 10545-6 norm
The test involves exposing the material to the abrasive action of a steel disk rotating in contact with the sample surface. Some corundum is made to fall between the sample and the disk. Subsequently, the length of the trace cord is measured and the volume of the material removed is calculated. The latter will act as the benchmark parameter for test classification.
AP/10/LC MODEL ABRASIMETER
Laboratory instrument to determine the resistance to deep abrasion in cement, concrete and natural stone according to UNI EN 1338, UNI EN 1339, UNI EN 1340, UNI EN 1342, UNI EN 1344, standards, obtained by means a steel disc ø 200x70 mm. and abrasive material as corundum grain size F80 that falls between the disk and the specimen.
