To realize the quantitative evaluation of paper handling machines, we have developed original test media, the base material of which uses highly durable synthetic paper. With a special surface printing process and new technologies employed, the flexible and quantitative control of the specific characteristics of the media is ensured. Seven of them (the friction coefficient, deformation, thickness, scratch resistance, stiffness, anti-static performance, and adhesion of the medium to the rubber roller) greatly influence the paper handling performance of machines, The technology of friction coefficient control, in particular among them, is expected to be used for other applications as well. The inspection using these test media makes it possible to evaluate the paper handling performance of machines according to each medium characteristic quantitatively. Therefore, a reduction in the period of product development and the accumulation of reliable technologies as advantages are expected. Furthermore, a reduction in the processing period of products is expected from the production side as well along with the manufacture of high-quality products.
