The KFG-2049 Digital Ink Rub Tester is designed to measure scuffing or rubbing resistance. Several tests can be performed including dry rub – the amount of transfer ink from one dry surface to another, wet rub – the amount of transfer of ink from wetted surface to another, wet bleed or transfer – ink transfer to a water-saturated blotter, wet smear – similar to wet bleed with the addition of rub cycles, functional rub/wet – smear or transfer tests using a liquid other than water and hot abrasion. An optional heated weight provides a uniform test for evaluating hot abrasion resistance of printed cartons, labels etc.
