Abstract

The purpose of this project is to design a suitable jig to carry out peel test on a Universal Tester Machine (UTM). Adhesive joint is widely used in today industry. Peel test is the test carried out to test the strength of an adhesive joint. Therefore, peel test is one of the important tests run for the advancement in adhesive technologies. In this project, the jig designed is focuses on 90 degree peel test to test the adhesive strength of adhesive tape on different type of materials. The peel test standard follows the standard of ASTM D3330/D3330M, 2010. Engineering design process is used in order to design a suitable jig for this project. The jig is designed and analyzed through CATIA software where the conceptual design is selected using the Pugh’s selection method. After final selection, the functional prototype of the jig is manufactured using rapid prototyping process. Manufactured jig is tested on UTM machine and the sample result is recorded. Different material can be attached to the specimen plate of the jig to carry out peel test with different specimen. The jig designed in this project can be improved and modified in future similar studies for better peel test jig for UTM.
