Friction and wear experiments on the disc cylinder rig (IM-TRIB-010)

Last updated on 29 August 2013 3:19
The disc cylinder rig consists of a 6 in. diameter disc rolling against a parallel 6 in. diameter cylinder. The cylinder can be traversed axially so that the disc rolls along a helical path over its surface. The transverse friction (i.e. in the axial direction) is measured. Fox a...
