Office Chair Caster Life Testing Machine

Standard: BIFMA X5.1

This machine is used to evaluate the durability, wear resistance, and life of office chair casters (wheels) and bases. It simulates the real-world use of an office chair by applying a load to the seat and moving the chair back and forth on a horizontal surface         

Specification/Features
  • Purpose: To evaluate the ability of chair casters/base to withstand reciprocating fatigue stress and wear. 
  • Load: A specific weight (e.g., 45 kg or 113 kg) is placed on the chair seat during the test. 
  • Reciprocating Stroke: The distance the chair travels back and forth, often adjustable (e.g., 0 to 762 mm). 
  • Speed/Frequency: The rate of movement, which can typically be set or adjusted (e.g., 9 rpm or 5-15 cycles per minute). 
  • Control System: Often uses a PLC (Programmable Logic Controller) or microcomputer with an LCD interface for setting parameters and counting cycles.
