TRIBOLOGY
Quantify lubrication & coefficient of friction. Generate Stribeck curves.
Tribology
Tribology is the study of friction, wear and lubrication. This assay is performed with a specifically designed attachment to quantify resistance of materials over a broad range of angular frequency (radians/sec) under a defined downward force (up to 20N (2.02kg)) and temperature (0 to 200C). An example output are Stribeck curves (below) that compare the coefficient of friction (CoF) vs increasing shear for 2 regular and 2 high mileage brand name motor oils at 15, 25, and 125C under 1 Newton (101 grams) downward force.
