RB 3000 Rubber Rebound Resilience Tester

Essential to R&D or quality control, the RB 3000 rubber rebound resilience tester determines the resilience and shock absorption properties of rubber and elastomeric materials. Utilizing a multi-language 7” touch screen display, the RB 3000 effortlessly guides users through each testing sequence. The pendulum mechanism features a 15mm diameter hammer fin connected to an air bearing system. The bearing system is then connected to a high resolution non-contact encoder guaranteeing the highest precision in pendulum angle measurement.

Features & Applications

  • Simplified touchscreen operation
  • Automatic detection of incorrectly placed samples
  • Fully automated test sequence with motorized pendulum release and return
  • Integrated calibration routines allow users to measure, calibrate, and compensate the pendulum friction
  • Interchangeable hammers, fins and anvil plates for various applications and sample types
  • Three available temperature control systems allow for testing at elevated or even sub-ambient temperatures
  • Easy setup with leveling feet, and an integrated spirit level
  • Heavy duty vibration resistant machine frame
  • Test sequences include up to three pre-test or full test hits
  • Results displayed on the 7" touchscreen and / or delivered to a database
