SATRA TM144 Computerized Footwear Slip Resistance Testing Machine China Manufacturer

Footwear Slip Resistance Tester is used to determine the anti-slip performance of footwear by measuring the coefficient of friction between footwear outsoles and flooring surfaces in a dynamic manner under specified conditions.

It is suitable for testing different types of footwear, outsole units, heel top pieces, sheet soling materials, and most types of floorings. But footwear containing spikes, metal studs or similar are not included.

Our slip resistance tester has a rigid horizontal surface mount to hold different types of test floors, such as steel floors, ceramic tile floors, concrete floors, wood floors, etc., whose surfaces are allowed to be dry or wet with contaminant during the test based on requirements. You are required to lower the specimen mounted on the shoemaking last/mechanical foot or attached to the flat mounting surface onto the flooring surface.

Clamping device of SATRA TM144 slip resistance tester

It supports different test modes, including heel mode, forepart mode, top piece/material mode, etc., depending on the specimen contact position and the direction of the acting force. Rigid wedges of angles 5° and 7° are available to assist in adjusting the contact angle of the specimen when required. The test floor is able to move horizontally at a specified speed under control relative to the specimen bearing a prescribed normal force for initiating the sliding movement.

Our slip resistance tester is a computer-aided test facility. It is equipped with a full set of computer hardware and software, which is linked with the corresponding driving, measurement, and control system. It enables a series of instructions regarding the magnitude and timing of vertical force application, horizontal displacement control, data acquisition, and measurement to be transmitted and executed accurately. The software interface is concise and easy to use.

Test Principle

A prepared footwear or footwear material specimen is lowered and positioned to make contact with a flooring surface at a specified angle (if required). A predefined normal force is applied to the specimen, and the surface is moved horizontally relative to the specimen at a given speed, during which both the friction force and vertical force are measured by the corresponding mechanism. And the dynamic coefficient of friction is calculated.
