Automatic Digital Durometer
The Automatic digital durometer integrates an automatic test stand with a portable digital durometer, boosting operational efficiency by minimizing manual intervention, enhancing test precision, and optimizing workflow in accordance with ASTM D2240. Its durable design guarantees long-lasting performance, making it an essential tool for modern manufacturing and quality control operations.
What is ASTM D2240?
ASTM D2240 is a standard test method established by ASTM International for measuring the hardness of rubber, elastomers, and plastics using a durometer. This standard outlines procedures for determining the indentation hardness of materials by specifying different Shore durometer scales (such as Shore A, D, and others) based on the material type and hardness range.
The hardness is measured on a scale of 0 to 100, with higher values indicating harder materials.
The most common testing methods are:
✔️ Shore A – For softer materials like rubber, elastomers, and flexible plastics.
✔️ Shore D – For harder plastics and rigid elastomers.
