Pin washer ⁄ Ball washer Test stand

(Vibration and sliding wear in the small load range)

Test parameters:

  • Normal load: 1 to 20 N (stepless)
  • Wear rate: 1 – 80 min -1 (rotation) or ≤ 10 mm⁄s (translation).
  • Test temperature up to 200 °C at translation
  • Conditioned test conditions possible
  • Electrical contact measurement with automatic switch-off

Testing system:

  • Flexible sample geometry: e.g. 40 x 20 x 15 mm 3 or round Ø = 40 mm, t = 10 mm
  • Counter body: ball diameter: 3, 6 or 10 mm
  • Pin diameter: 2 - 6 mm

Evaluation sizes:

  • Depth of wear (total wear of the friction partners)
  • Coefficient of friction, frictional force
  • Ohmic resistance
  • Contour of the wear track ( Touch probe , 3-D profilometer )
