High Temperature Pin On Disk Tester
The pin-on-disk tester is one of the best known and most widely used tribotesters. The set-up consists of a stationary pin that, under the influence of a dead-weight, rests on a rotating disk. The pin-on-disk tester is made by the Swiss company CSM-Instruments (formerly known as CSEM). The pin-on-disk tester can be placed in a climate chamber, in order to provide a controlled environment (temperature and humidity). A controlled environment is particularly important when testing friction and wear of some plastics and ceramic materials. Using the heating module of the set-up, materials can be tested at temperatures up to 600°C. |
