Oiliness Fiction Tester

Reciprocating Slide Friction Tester (Shuttle-Bot)

Reciprocating Slide Friction Tester (Shuttle-Bot)
  • The shuttle-bot tester is designed to perform a reciprocating friction & wear test using a ball (or pin) and a plate.

The purpose of the shuttle-bot tester is to evaluate the changes of frictional force during receiprocating slide and coeficient of friction.
The wide changing fuction of the load, slip rate and surface temperature supports the understanding in friction and wear property of metal or resin materials and lubricants.
