Used for evaluating friction, wear, and abrasion characteristics of materials, coatings, and lubricants.
Large variation of contact conditions can be simulated (see specifications). This test uses online measurement of the online 'wear' evolution, temperatures, loads, speeds and friction force for automated testing. Extremely low speed adapter allows measurement of static coefficient of friction, or simulating stick-slip phenomena. Standardized tests include: ASTM D3702 - G99. Prices can vary upon preparation & customization of the test. This company is specialized in friction and wear testing.
