Developed by TMI Büchel , our paper and flexible packaging testing brand, this horizontal bed coefficient of friction tester is the ultimate static and dynamic testing machine for a wide range of paper, corrugated, flexible films, rigid plastics and engineered surfaces.
It is widely used across industries such as flexible packaging, plastics manufacturing, labels and adhesives, corrugated cardboard production, and consumer goods where surface friction, material handling and product performance are critical to quality and process reliability.
The 32-76e coefficient of friction and peel tester uses advanced digital force signaling and high-speed data acquisition software to provide unmatched precision and repeatability. If you need to know how to measure coefficient of friction successfully, this is the device for you!
Accurate and repeatable measurements help you reduce production variability, improve material selection decisions and support consistent product performance in your manufacturing or QC processes.
Our coefficient of friction tester includes a color touchscreen display and an intuitive software user interface for easy navigation and test method storage.
Our coefficient of friction tester comes with a comprehensive peel strength and heat seal application. Use it to enter a variety of peel strength parameters designed to support most international peel test and heat seal international standards. Choose from the selectable units, and both pre-peel and peel distance settings, for flexible test method set-up and storage.
Our coefficient of friction tester features a T-Peel fixture that’s designed to measure the adhesive force of a heat seal or adhesive bonded substrate.
Our 180-degree peel fixture measures the release strength of a label, or the peeling strength of an adhesive substrate. It includes a set of two test clamps that enable you to accurately inspect the release strength of labels and tapes.
During the manufacture and converting process of plastic films, the material is subjected to elevated temperatures.
When using a heated platen, it’s common for the heated surface for many plastic films to produce an increase in coefficient of friction. To measure this behavior, our coefficient of friction tester is available with an optional heated platen that can be set at temperatures from ambient to 162° C (325°F), meeting ASTM D1894 standards for heated friction testing.
Our GraphMasterProTM software is a WindowsTM based software data collection program capable of providing test curve analysis, result data, data storage, exporting and printed reports.
This coefficient of friction tester software automatically captures individual test results and raw data. In addition to collecting data from instruments manufactured by TMI Büchel, GraphMasterProTM can be configured to communicate with instruments manufactured by other suppliers too.
This powerful data handling and reporting capability helps quality, R&D and process teams analyse trends, resolve material issues faster and integrate test data into production quality systems.
Whether you work with plastic films, packaging, paper, labels, coatings, cartons, adhesives, foils or printed materials, you’ll achieve the results you need with our coefficient of friction tester.
This makes the 32-76e highly applicable across converting, coating, printing and packaging lines where understanding friction and adhesion is crucial to material performance and downstream processes.
Our coefficient of friction tester will help you to carry out tests like the peel test or the adhesion test to the most stringent of international standards, including:

Poor calibration services → Selected Industrial Physics as a service partner → Superior service achieved! ✓
Proper calibration of your inspection devices is essential for a long and accurate life of service. A leading pet food manufacturer discovered this when shoddy servicing created a raft of problems with their burst and creep testing equipment.
Our experts quickly identified and rectified the pre-existing problems. Now, they’re delighted to rely upon a trusted test and inspection partner with Industrial Physics.
Scott Chambers, Quality Technician at Mars Inc., said,
“I was very happy to be one of the first companies to participate in the mobile calibration program. Ryan Moreno was my technician and was very personable, knowledgeable, and accommodating. The calibrations he performed were very efficient. I like having a technician on site one on one to answer any question I had. Also, not having to ship my BT-Integra units was a major plus. looking forward to future visits at Mars Petcare KKC.”
