Description

Tribological measurements:

The tribological accessory is based on the ball-on-three-plates / ball-on-three-pins principle, where a vertically held steel ball is placed on an three-plates inset. The plate stage is movable in all directions to set the required normal load on all three plates. With the tribological setup Stribeck curves and static friction tests can be done.

 

Rheologcal measurements:

A rheometer is a scientific instrument to measure the flow and deformation behavior of materials in rotational and oscillatory mode. Good speed and torque control are necessary for qualitative rheological results. Similar parameters are needed for tribology, whereas both measurements are combined in this machine.
