PLC Touch Screen Control Chair Castor Durability Test Machine

The SL-T27 Caster and Chair Base Durability Tester is a specialized furniture testing machine built to evaluate the durability of casters mounted on tables, pedestals and office chair star bases. As a caster and base durability tester, it simulates rolling wear and repeated load transfer to verify the long-term performance of mobility components.

Developed for BIFMA and BS EN compliance, this furniture test equipment is an essential tool for office furniture brands, manufacturers and third-party testing laboratories performing quality control. Fully CE certified and controlled by a PLC and LCD touch screen, the SL-T27 delivers consistent, standards-based durability data for casters and chair bases.

The tester applies a defined load (one set of 122 kg) to the caster or base and drives it back and forth along an 800 mm stroke at 8–15 cycles/min to simulate rolling movement over a floor surface. With selectable test positions (1, 2 or 4) and a programmable target of 100,000 cycles, the machine evaluates caster wear, base fatigue and overall mobility durability under repeated rolling stress as required by BIFMA and BS EN methods.
