Böhme Abrasion Test Apparatus Böhme Abrasion Machine for Concrete Böhme Abrasion Test Equipment

OVERVIEW

The Böhme Abrasion Tester is a specialized testing instrument designed to determine the abrasion resistance of concrete, natural stone, paving blocks, and other flooring materials. It simulates real-world wear conditions to evaluate a material’s durability under mechanical stress, making it essential for construction material testing laboratories, quality control departments, and research institutions.

KEY FEATURES

✅ Compliant with International Standards – Meets ISO 10545-6, EN 1338, EN 1339, EN 1340, ASTM C944, and other relevant standards.
✅ Precision Testing Mechanism – Accurately measures volume loss due to abrasion, ensuring reliable and repeatable results.
✅ Robust & Durable Construction – Built with a heavy-duty steel frame for long-term performance and stability.
✅ Easy-to-Use Operation – Intuitive control panel and efficient sample placement streamline the testing process.
✅ Customizable Test Parameters – Adjustable speed, load, and abrasive materials for versatile testing applications.

WORKING PRINCIPLE

The Böhme Abrasion Tester operates by rotating a test specimen under a defined abrasive load on a circular steel disc. Abrasive material (such as corundum sand) is applied, simulating wear conditions similar to real-world use. The volume loss due to abrasion is then measured, determining the material’s resistance to mechanical wear.

TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS
