Multi-Function Friction and Wear Tester is a highly configurable tribological testing system designed for comprehensive evaluation of friction and wear behavior of materials. The system offers an extra-large working space, an ultra-wide load range, and the capability to integrate an in-situ 3D optical surface profiler. With interchangeable test modules and optional environmental chambers, it supports tribological testing from nano to macro scales under controlled temperature, humidity, pressure, or vacuum conditions. The instrument is widely used across aerospace, automotive, biomaterials, coatings, optics, polymers, semiconductors, and related research fields.
Application
The system is suitable for tribological performance evaluation in a wide range of testing scenarios, including but not limited to:
Friction and wear characterization of metallic materials, ceramics, polymers, coatings, and composites
Lubrication performance assessment of lubricating oils and greases
Wear mechanism analysis of bearings, gears, seals, and functional coatings
Tribological simulation of biomedical components such as artificial joints and dental materials
Surface damage, scratch resistance, and micro-motion wear studies
Supported test configurations include ball-on-disk, pin-on-disk rotation, reciprocating ring-on-block, fretting, scratch testing, and other modular test modes.
Standards
The Multi-Function Friction and Wear Tester is designed to support test methods referenced in the following standards:
ASTM G99 (Standard Test Method for Wear Testing with a Pin-on-Disk Apparatus)
ISO 20808 (Fine ceramics — Determination of friction and wear characteristics of monolithic ceramics by ball-on-disk method)
GB/T 3142 (Determination of load-carrying capacity of lubricants — Four-ball method)
SH/T 0189 (Test method for anti-wear properties of lubricating oils — Four-ball method)
