Abstract

In this paper, the newly developed tribometer was introduced. Ball-on-disk, pin-on-disk, small-sized journal and thrust bearings tests on friction and wear were carried out using a newly developed tribometer which is built up according to the ASTM G99. Those friction and wear test results were compared with the friction results which were approved by Korean (KOLAS) and CSM Instruments. The comparison revealed that friction characteristics and trends of three different tribometers were similar to each other. The objective of this paper is to demonstrate the capability of the newly developed tribometer. As a result, the newly developed tribometer is capable of performing friction tests using pin-on-disk, disk-on-disk, journal and thrust bearings configurations.
