The CSM Nano Tribometer is a unique
instrument because of its low load range down to 50µN. It can perform both the
linear reciprocating and rotating mode. One important feature of all the CSM
Tribometers is that the experiment stops automatically when the coefficient of
friction reaches a threshold value or when a specified number of turns is
reached. Also, the Tribometer is supplied with an enclosure so that controlled
atmospheres of varying humidity or composition can be used. Specialized versions
of the Tribometer have been developed for high & low temperature operations,
reciprocating motion and high vacuum testing. The Nano Tribometer is equipped
with a depth measuring sensor for real-time display of depth information which
is important in studying the time dependent wear properties. Furthermore, an
electrical conductivity option can enable testing of electrical insulation of
coatings.

Tribometer
The control of friction and wear in moving machine parts is a
critical issue facing the manufacturing industry. It is important to have
comparable analysis data obtained over a period of years, at varying humidity
and temperature and in the presence of lubricants. The CSM Tribometer have
proven their reliability worldwide in over 100 laboratories.

High Temperature Tribometer
For reasons of security and energy
conservation, the analysis of friction and wear properties of materials at
elevated temperatures is becoming increasingly important, especially for the
development and quality control of combustion engines and power plants. To meet
the resulting demand of instrumentation, CSM Instruments has extended its range
of pin-on-disk Tribometers with a powerful high-temperature version which can
accurately simulate in-service conditions.
High Vacuum Tribometer
The High Vacuum
Tribometer has been designed to provide controlled vacuum conditions (e.g.
space) or gaseous environments. The highly efficient vacuum control system
allows the user to reach the desired atmospheric condition very fast but in a
controlled way.
