Compact Benchtop Friction and Wear Tester is a compact, open-platform tribological testing system designed for the characterization of friction, wear, scratch, and related material properties. The instrument combines ease of use with fully automated test procedures and a multi-channel controller, ensuring high repeatability and precise measurements. With interchangeable force sensors and test modules, multiple tests—including scratch, friction, wear, and surface morphology measurement—can be performed on a single platform.
Application
The Compact Benchtop Friction and Wear Tester is suitable for a wide range of laboratory and industrial tribology applications, including:
Friction, wear, and scratch performance evaluation of metals, ceramics, polymers, coatings, and composite materials
Surface damage, indentation, and scratch resistance analysis
Fretting and linear reciprocating wear studies
Tribological behavior testing under high-temperature, low-temperature, vacuum, and corrosive conditions
Lubricant and additive performance evaluation using rotational and reciprocating test modes
Supported test configurations include ball-on-disk, pin-on-disk, high-speed reciprocating motion, and ring-on-block testing, with optional integration of 3D optical surface profiling.
Standards
The 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)
