WEAR & FRICTION MONITOR -TR 20
PURPOSE
The Ducom Wear and Friction Monitor (Pin/Ball on Dis Tester) records
sliding contact in dry, lubricated, controfed environment and vacuum conditions.
DESCRIPTION
The Duoom Weer and Friction Monitor - TR 20 Series has become the industry standard in
wear and friction analysis. The TR 20 Series trisometer is speciically designed for fundamental
wear and friction characterization. Ths instrument consists of a rotating disc against which a
tost pin is pressed with a known force. A provision for measurement of compound wear
‘and fictional forces provided.
he Ducom TR 20 Series along with select options provide researchers with very wide test
capabilities. Options for lubrication recirculation, environment chamber, pin temperature
measurement, elevated temperature tests, and low temperature tests, e
environments and vacuum tests are available. (please consult Ducom for dtais)
The TR 20 Series comes with the WinDucom® software for data acquisition and display of
ssuts, The WinDucom® instrumentation and Data Acquisition permits users, the
measurement of
1. RPM
2. Wear
Frictional force
4, Temperature (optional)
19 the WinDucom® Data Acquisition S
stem, a PC acquires test data online and displays it
in several ways, Graphs of individual tests can be printed. Results of different tests can be
Luperimposed using the WinDucom* ComparView’ feature for comparative viewing of resus.
Data canbe exported to other software,
