Simulating the friction of lubricants and materials with a high-frequency reciprocating rig

Testing of surfaces and lubricants on reciprocating systems, such as engines and linear compressors, requires the use of laboratory-scale tribometers prior to final component testing. In this application note from Bruker, explore a tribometry setup that enables time-effective screening of lubricants and materials at the benchtop scale using a UMT TriboLab™.
