Tribology Trainer Basic Module- Engineering Lab Training Systems

Technical Description The trainer enables different sliding and rolling friction cases to be investigated. The parameters of a tribological system can be assessed during this process. The drive module is the basis for experiments with a range of accessories. The unit consists of a sturdy frame made of anodised aluminium section. Rubber feet ensure that the table unit does not slip. The individual accessory modules are driven using a DC drive motor. The motor is connected to the controller. The rotational speed can be continuously and finely adjusted using a 10-turn potentiometer. The speed is regulated electronically and displayed digitally. Friction forces are measured using strain gauge transducers. The controller processes this data and displays it digitally. Snap-action fasteners for fixing the accessory modules to the frame simplify the rapid assembly and disassembly of the experiments.
