Determining rock abrasivity in the laboratory.
OCAI-70 Original Cerchar abrasivity index tester ASTM D7625-10. Description. The OCAI-70 accurately determines the rock abrasivity index (CAI) employed for the classification of rock materials in terms of abrasivity. The CAI is a dimensionless unit obtained from measuring the wear on a HRC55 Rockwell Hardness steel stylus tip after it has been.
The Cerchar Abrasion Index (CAI) test is one of the simplest and most widely used methods for evaluating rock abrasivity. In this study, a new device for the determination of frictional forces and depth of pin penetration into the rock surface during a Cerchar test is discussed.
The abrasivity of rock and soil is a commonly determined property, which is used for the estimation of the wear of excavation tools. Therefore, d ifferent laboratory test have been developed over the last decades. Within this work, the often used LCPC - and Cerchar -test are presented. The.
The Cerchar test method and its index, the so-called Cerchar abrasivity index, are most commonly used to determine the abrasivity of rocks and other geo-materials for construction. Recently, with.
There have been developed a number of methods to assess the abrasivity of rock materials with the increased use of mechanized rock excavation. These methods range from determination of abrasive and hard mineral content using petrographic thin section analysis to weight loss or development of wear flat on a specified cutting tool. The Cerchar abrasivity index (CAI) test has been widely accepted.
The sample should be sufficient to permit 5 test scratches (10 mm) at least 5 mm from the edge of the rock surface and each test should be 5 mm apart. If it is a core, the diameter should be less than 76 mm and length less than 150 mm. Ideally size is like a tennis ball.
The abrasivity of rock and soil is a commonly determined property, which is used for the estimation of the wear of excavation tools. Therefore, different laboratory test have been developed over.

In addition, for coal samples, they formed a cuttability classification by using CHI values that is given in Table 1 (Bilgin et al. 1992). Table 1. A cuttability classification for Cerchar hardness.
Investigating the effect of strength on the LCPC abrasivity of igneous rocks LCPC abrasivity;igneous rocks;rock strength; The abrasivity of rocks results in tool wear in rock excavation or drilling projects. It can affect significantly the cost and schedule of the projects performed in abrasive rock massess. For this reason, the understanding of the mechanism of rock abrasivity is very.

Abstract. Cerchar Abrasivity Index test (CAI) is widely used for determining the abrasiveness of rocks. This test provides an index value that can be used as a gauge for the abrasiveness of rocks in order to estimation of bit life and wear in various mining and tunneling applications.

Thus, an update of the test recommendations is needed urgently. As abrasivity assess- ment of soils becomes more and more important, the authors have set a capable testing pro- cedure and a suggestion of a unified classification scheme for both, rock and soil materials.
