The Drum and Reciprocating Friction and Wear Testing Machine is a dual-function tribological testing system designed to perform both linear reciprocating sliding tests and drum rotation wear tests. By combining conventional friction and wear measurement with rotating drum testing, the machine enables realistic simulation of actual operating conditions for rollers, drums, paper, and sheet materials, providing comprehensive evaluation of friction behavior and wear performance.
Application
This testing machine is suitable for friction and wear evaluation under both linear sliding and rotational contact conditions, including:
Reciprocating sliding friction and wear testing of flat samples
Drum rotation wear testing under simulated real-use conditions
Friction testing of photosensitive drums and paper-feeding rollers by rotating them as in actual equipment
Linear reciprocating sliding tests of paper and paperboard samples
Wear behavior evaluation of coatings, polymers, and functional surfaces
Typical test samples include:
Photosensitive drums and transport rollers
Paper, paperboard, and sheet materials
Coated plates and flat specimens
Functional rollers used in printing and conveying systems
Standards
ASTM G133 (Standard Test Method for Linearly Reciprocating Ball-on-Flat Sliding Wear)
ISO 7148 (Plain Bearings — Testing of Friction and Wear)
JIS K 7218 (Testing Methods for Plastic Tribological Properties)
JIS P 8139 (Determination of Friction and Wear Properties of Paper and Board)
