STD-TE 95 PRECISION ROTARY TRIBOMETER – LOW TEMPERATURE ENABLED

説明

A unique feature of STD-TE 95 Precision Rotary Tribometer – Low Temperature Enabled is the use of a dual axis, in-line, torque and axial force transducer, allowing measurement of both axial load and friction torque on the rotating, upper specimen, as opposed to the more conventional methods associated with more standard rotary tribometers. Measuring the load and friction at the rotating specimen, instead of at the fixed lower specimen, means that the latter can be attached to bulky refrigerant pipes, without inducing unwanted tare forces.

Tests may be run using geometries specified in the following standards:

• ASTM G99 Wear Testing with a Pin-on-Disc Apparatus

• ASTM D3702 Standard Test Method for Wear Rate of Materials in Self-Lubricated Rubbing Contact Using a Thrust Washer Testing Machine

• ASTM D2266 Wear Preventive Characteristics of Lubricating Greases

• ASTM D4172 Wear Preventive Characteristics of Lubricating Fluid

• ASTM D5183 Determination of the Coefficient of Friction of Lubricants

Customised test assemblies and tooling can be accommodated, provided these work with axi-symmetric loading and produce a pure couple friction torque.
