Dry sand abrasion (ASTM G65) or abrasion in slurry (ASTM G105, ASTM B611), the ABT-3 can do it all.  [![Contact Us](https://no-cache.hubspot.com/cta/default/5735947/ae754668-c424-4626-b943-daa047ad5c97.png)](https://cta-redirect.hubspot.com/cta/redirect/5735947/ae754668-c424-4626-b943-daa047ad5c97) ![Abrasion Tester Product Image - Reduced](https://www.ducom.com/hubfs/DUCOM/Products/Abrasion%20Tester/Video%20and%20Images/Abrasion%20Tester%20Product%20Image%20-%20Reduced.png "Abrasion Tester Product Image - Reduced") ## Desktop and Automatic Measure wear friction under three body abrasion conditions. **ASTM G65** (dry abrasion), **ASTM G105** and **ASTM B611** (slurry abrasion) compliant.  - [Specifications](https://www.ducom.com/abrasion-tester#tab1) - [Standards](https://www.ducom.com/abrasion-tester#tab2) - [Applications](https://www.ducom.com/abrasion-tester#tab3) ## Technical Specifications - Load: 100 N to 300 N (automatic) - Speed: Up to 250 rpm - Friction Force: up to 300 N - Duration 999,999 rev (Max) ## Test Standards - **ASTM G65:** Standard Test Method for Measuring Abrasion Using the Dry Sand/Rubber Wheel Apparatus. - **ASTM G105:** Standard Test Method for Conducting Wet Sand/Rubber Wheel Abrasion Tests. - **ASTM B611:** Standard Test Method for Determining the High Stress Abrasion Resistance of Hard Materials. ## Application Examples - Ranking of materials with respect to its abrasive resistance (dry and slurry). - Quality analysis and product development of molding tools used in sand-lime bricks. - Research in the area of refractory ceramics. - Abrasive wear resistance of hard face coatings ## Product Features ## COMPACT AND MODULAR ### Dry Sand Abrasion. Slurry Abrasion. The ABT-3 abrasion tester can test samples in dry sand abrasion conditions and in slurry conditions. The carefully thought out design makes this transition easy and quick. ![Image of dry abrasion test area](https://www.ducom.com/hubfs/DUCOM/Products/Abrasion%20Tester/Video%20and%20Images/Image%20of%20dry%20abrasion%20test%20area.jpg) ![Ducom Abrasion Tester (ABR-3) - Dry Abrasion Test GIF](https://www.ducom.com/hubfs/Ducom%20Abrasion%20Tester%20(ABR-3)%20-%20Dry%20Abrasion%20Test%20GIF.gif) ## GET MORE DATA ### Wear, friction data with each test Built in instrumentation and data logging capabilities help you extract more information with each test. Automatic loading that can be controlled with the touch of a button and continuous friction data logging help in studying not only wear resistance but also the friction behavior of materials. ## AUTOMATION ### Ease of use is central to our design We instrumented our Abrasion Tester (ABT-3) so that setting up tests would be easy and require very little training. Our guided software and automatic loading capabilities make the system safer and more convenient than ever before. ![Ducom Abrasion Tester (ABR-3) - Automatic Loading System GIF](https://www.ducom.com/hubfs/Ducom%20Abrasion%20Tester%20(ABR-3)%20-%20Automatic%20Loading%20System%20GIF.gif) ![ABT-3 software](https://www.ducom.com/hubfs/ABT-3%20software.gif) ## DATA ACQUSITION AND CONTROL ### Touch screen interface and Industry 4.0 ready The system comes standard with a touch screen interface and an easy and intuitive software. Every test is automatically logged and ready for reporting at your convenience.  The Abrasion Tester (ABT-3) is also compatible with MOOHA which enables access to instant instrument health monitoring, tamper proof test data, automatically maintains an audit log and more. ![Compatible With Mooha - Icon - White](https://www.ducom.com/hubfs/DUCOM/Products/Mooha%204.0/Videos%20and%20Images/Compatible%20With%20Mooha%20-%20Icon%20-%20White.png) Industry 4.0 Ready A.I Power Lab Assistant ## MOOHA - THE DIGITAL ASSISTANT FOR YOUR LAB MOOHA is an A.I. enabled digital assistant that can be used together with, or in place of your Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS).
