Scratch-tester Millennium

In accord width Standars ISO/EN 1071-3, ASTM c1624, ASTM G171 and JIS R 3255
Scratch test instrument for adherence charaterization and scratch resistance
for thin coatings and bulk materials.



The scratch-test method consists of scratching on the surface with a diamond tip on which is applied a constant or progressive load.

As the scratching is done the sample move under the video system, to examine the different finds of damage done by the tip and correlate it with load applied.

This standard method allows for comparison of different coatings, substrates, thickness of coatings, preparations of surface before coating and scratch resistance of bulk materials.



We've developed three instruments in order to test different kind of coatings
Thickness from 500 nanometers to 100 microns :

Millenium 50
Charge maximale : 50 N
Charge minimale : 0,025 N
Millenium 100
Charge maximale : 100 N
Charge minimale : 0,05 N
Millenium 200
Charge maximale : 200 N
Charge minimale : 0,01 N

Exemple de scratch test sur revêtement TiN PVD

Plastic deformation
and longitudinal cracks
at the borders of the
scratch track.
Spallation along the
scratch track border,
both cohesive and
interfacial.
Discontinuous
ductile perforation
of the coating
