"A ball-on-plate reciprocating friction and wear test system, assessing the performance of both fuels and lubricants under boundary conditions. Wear scar assessment with the standard specimens requires only one measurement
Only a small volume of lubricant is required – tests can be carried out on field collected or experimental fluids; film formation by boundary additives can be observed by electrical contact potential (ECR) changes
Fast, repeatable friction and wear measurement
Independently proven repeatability and reproducibility
Fully automated, microprocessor controlled test sequence"
