Tackiness Tester – Rubber Tack Tester

Tackiness Tester – Rubber Tack Tester

The Rubber Tack Tester measures the adhesion, or tack, of rubber materials, adhesive tapes, sealants, and similar products. Tack refers to the force needed to separate two sheet materials pressed together for a set period. Key factors that affect tack include contact pressure, contact time, and temperature. Rubber Tack Tester enables users to program the test cycle and ensures precise control of adhesion force and timing.

Force Application Device

The instrument comes with a cylindrical force application device.

Key advantages:

• The device can be rotated or removed between tests.
• Samples can be applied directly to the device to evaluate product-to-product adhesion.

Custom devices with different shapes are available upon request.

Test Report

Reports can be printed or saved as PDF in any of the available languages. The report format can be customized by the user.

Management of Test Results

All test results and force–displacement curves are saved in the SQL database and can be accessed through the Datagest program.

Datagest serves as a Laboratory Information Management System (LIMS) and is included with all instrument-control software. It consolidates test results from connected instruments and manages shared archives, including Product Lists, Customer Lists, Tolerance Limits, Order Lists, and more.

Industry 4.0 Integration

The instrument and software are designed for seamless integration with other systems. The SQL-format database, together with the program, enables synchronization with your company management software, streamlines test identification, and supports the use of barcode readers or similar devices.

Hardware Requirements

• Programs can be installed on standard PCs running Windows 10 or 11.
• Connection between the instruments and the PC is established using the supplied USB cable.
• The software is compatible with antivirus programs and other software installed on the PC.
