Product catalog summary
Tribotesting Overview
The document outlines the capabilities of a twin-disc tribological testing module, which includes features such as coefficient of friction (COF) and wear characterization, active control of slide-to-roll ratio, and sample temperature control. It accurately simulates gear meshing or sliding bearing contact conditions.
MTP Line - Plastic & Composite Gear & Tribological Testing
The MTP line offers testing for spur and helical gears in compliance with relevant standards. It includes temperature-dependent S-N curve analysis for fatigue and wear characterization, adaptable center distance for various gear sizes, and testing under dry, grease, or oil-lubricated conditions. Custom load spectrum signals and gear efficiency testing are also available.
Main Benefits
  • Accurate load and thermal condition control
  • Variable lubrication regimes
  • Material tests compliant with standards
  • Cost-effectiveness
  • Expertise available for consultation
