SATRA creates water abrasion test for footwear
25/08/2015
Leather and footwear testing firm SATRA has developed a test to replicate the effect that abrasive substances such as sand, silt an mud have on footwear in water.
The machine, which tests footwear for immersive flexing, also incorporates an abrasive aluminium oxide grit. A 'baffle bed' is used to diffuse air around the tank, which stops the grit from settling at the bottom.
