Tackiness Checker HTC-1 (Portable Tack Tester)
This is a portable adhesive testing machine that measures the adhesive properties (tack value) of non-sulfurized rubber, adhesive tapes, and the like. It allows for easy measurement of the adhesive strength of materials on-site.
In the molding process of tires and belts, where rubber components and reinforcing materials are adhered together in layers and vulcanized, it is very important to confirm the adhesiveness of the components in advance. This device has been developed as a tool to easily measure the adhesive strength of components on-site and can also be applied to measure the adhesive strength of tapes and similar materials. The ambient temperature at the site changes with the seasons, which also affects adhesiveness. The Tackiness Checker allows for easy measurement of adhesive strength on-site.
basic information
■ It is compact, lightweight, and easy to carry (approximately 1.3kg). ■ Thickness measurements can be taken on-site. ■ Measurements can be easily taken by simply pressing the device against the measurement material (automatic start). ■ The ratchet mechanism rotates the contact pin with each measurement. ■ The cleaning mode allows for easy cleaning of the contact pin. ■ It is possible to measure the surface temperature of the measurement material, which affects adhesive strength (optional).
