Automatically measures the traction (friction) coefficient in boundary lubrication, mixed lubrication, and elastohydrodynamic lubrication.
【Product Overview】 The MTM Traction Tester is a tabletop friction and wear testing machine of the ball-on-disk type provided by PCS Instruments in the UK, and it is adopted as a standard device in the lubricants and additives industry. By optimizing friction characteristics, it significantly enhances performance and helps reduce operational costs. 【Features】 It is capable of sliding test specimens of various materials and shapes within a slip rate range of ±10,000%. By using the optional 3D-SLIM, it is possible to observe the formation process of the tribofilms. 【Main Evaluation Contents】 Stribeck curve (friction coefficient × rolling speed) Traction curve (friction coefficient × slip rate) Tribofilm measurement *Optional
