meREB Rubber Rebound Tester is a fully automated high precision instrument specifically designed for measuring the resilience of vulcanized rubber or soft foam materials. The system consists of a base, Schob-type pendulum, sample thickness adjustment mechanism, clamping fixture, sample monitoring device, and touchscreen. It also offers optional sample heating systems and testing software, making it suitable for production, quality inspection, and product development applications.

The instrument is used for vulcanized rubber and soft foam materials with hardness values ranging from 30 IRHD to 85 IRHD.

Standards: GB/T 1681, ISO 4662, ASTM D7121

Features and Advantages

• Fully automatic design eliminates human influence on test results.
• Mechanically optimized pendulum with its center of gravity located at the tip of the hammer head.
• Air bearing system for the pendulum minimizes mechanical friction resistance.
• High-resolution non-contact encoder system ensures the highest accuracy in pendulum angle measurement.
• Integrated touchscreen simplifies reading display and function menu configuration.
• Sample monitoring device ensures proper placement on the anvil, protecting the striker and anvil from damage.
• Adjustable sample thickness system via anvil adaptation to accommodate different material specifications.
• Electric automatic pendulum release and return functions reduce operator-induced errors.
• Fully automated programmed testing performs three rebounds and outputs median or average values.
• Built-in calibration routine for pendulum frictional resistance with automatic system compensation.
• Interchangeable striker and anvil design extends applicability to other sample types.
• Adjustable leveling feet with integrated spirit level for easy horizontal alignment.
• Optional testing software enables comprehensive data acquisition and statistical analysis.
• Optional temperature control unit supports two samples with one preheating station and one testing station.
