Heated Platen FP-2260 Friction/Peel Tester

Description

The heated platen allows for testing at elevated temperatures.  Ideal for plastic film testing. 

Temperature range from:
21C to 204.4C
(70F to 400F)

The FP-2260 can measure static and kinetic coefficient of friction as well as run seal strength tests, 180° peel, 90° peel, and T-peel tests.  The FP-2260 also offers a tensile test mode to perform lightweight tensile tests up to 10 kg (22 lbf).    

Its small bench top design makes the FP-2260 light weight allowing it to be used in a laboratory or setup out on the production floor for offline testing as needed. 

Plastic film, adhesives, labels and packaging materials are ideally tested with the FP-2260 heated platen option.

The FP-2260 utilizes a multifunctional keypad which allows users to easily navigate through the menu options. The crosshead and the load cell are adjustable to allow ease of use when changing test set ups. The system also offers the ability to test to a specific distance or a specific time. The FP-2260 comes standard with the auto return/stop option at the end of a test.

When selecting a COF tester one FP-2260 advantage is the large front panel display screen. The front display is 240 pixels x 64 pixels and is designed for readability by the operator. The memory capacity on the FP-2260 can store up to 128 individual tests for each mode (COF, Peel, Tensile).

For added versatility the FP-2260 offers optional accessories to add testing options:

• Low capacity tensile – manual and air operated grips for seal and tensile tests
• Standard and Custom COF sleds
• 90°/180° peel fixture
• T-peel fixture
• Tray peel fixture
• Delamination test fixtures
• Heated Platen for testing at elevated temperatures up to 350° F

Software Option:

• MAP4 Software provides unlimited testing capabilities with built-in test methods that can be customized by the end user.  This software allows for extensive data analysis to evaluate materials.
