The Reciprocating Tribometer is a value-engineered tribological testing instrument designed for lubricated ball-on-flat experiments. You can perform high-frequency linear oscillation tests to evaluate friction, wear, and extreme pressure (EP) properties of lubricating greases, oils, and solid bonded films. The instrument combines a servo-pneumatic loading system, Scotch Yoke reciprocating mechanism, and touch-screen PC control for precise management of load, stroke, frequency, and temperature. You can collect real-time friction data via a piezoelectric transducer and export all test results for analysis.
Application
You can apply this tribometer for:
Evaluating lubricating grease friction and wear performance under high Hertzian contact.
Measuring extreme pressure (EP) properties of lubricating oils and solid bonded films.
Assessing fretting wear resistance of greases and lubricated components.
Determining scuffing limits and friction coefficients of mechanical transmission fluids.
Lubricated ball-on-flat and cylinder-on-flat contact tests for research and industrial labs.
Friction and wear testing of automotive transmission, hydraulic, and industrial lubricants.
Material screening and quality control in R&D or laboratory settings.
