Reciprocating-Rotary Friction and Wear Tester
The Reciprocating-Rotary Friction and Wear Tester (Type 1) is designed for evaluating the tribological performance of materials and surface coatings. This device simulates rotational and linear reciprocating motion under a controlled test force. By adjusting parameters such as load, speed, frequency, stroke, duration, friction pair materials, surface roughness, and hardness, you can assess the comprehensive performance of materials or coatings. The system provides real-time monitoring of friction force, test load, and temperature, and dynamically plots all key parameters. Safety functions include automatic shutdown or alarms if preset limits are exceeded.
