Mini Traction Measurement - MTM-EC

The MTM-EC expands upon an extensive capability of the MTM by providing users the additional capability to apply an electrical potential across the ball-and-disc contact. This enables investigation into the effect of electrical potentials on tribology systems and allows for a quick characterisation of lubricants, materials and formulations.

 

It is a perfect tool for industry and academia to begin to understand the implications of electrified systems, such as those found in electric vehicles and wind turbines.

 

  • The MTM Software can control the triggering of the MTM-EC, improving repeatability of tests, and removing user-induced error
  • Simple test set-up and calibration procedures enable users to produce fast, repeatable results.
  • The ball and disc specimens are electrically isolated, allowing either specimen to act as the anode and cathode
  • Independently driven specimens enable a wide range of contact conditions to be replicated across all three lubrication regimes.
  • User provided oscilloscopes and power supply units allow for extensive customisation.
