High Pressure Tribometer
HPT-2 High Pressure - Real Tribology Insights
The HPT-2 High Pressure Tribometer is designed to investigate friction and wear behavior under controlled high-pressure conditions representative of real mechanical systems such as gears, bearings, and heavily loaded lubricated contacts. The system enables researchers to study the performance of lubricants, additives, coatings, and engineering materials under elevated pressures that cannot be reproduced with conventional tribometers.
With precise closed-loop force control and advanced sensor integration, the HPT-2 continuously measures friction, torque, and wear signals during the test.
The controlled pressurized environment allows detailed investigation of lubrication mechanisms, surface interactions, and material durability, making the HPT-2 a powerful tool for advanced tribology research and lubricant development.
KEY FEATURES
True High-Pressure Tribology Tester
The HPT-2 enables tribological testing under controlled high-pressure conditions, allowing researchers to reproduce the extreme environments found in gears, bearings, hydraulic systems, and heavily loaded contacts. This capability provides more realistic evaluation of lubricant performance, surface interactions, and material durability compared to conventional tribometers operating at ambient pressure.
Precise Closed-Loop Force Control
The system uses advanced closed-loop force control to apply highly stable and programmable loads during testing.
This ensures excellent repeatability and precise contact conditions throughout the experiment. Researchers can simulate real operating loads while maintaining accurate friction and wear measurements, enabling reliable comparison of materials, coatings, and lubricants.
Integrated Multi-Sensor Monitoring
The HPT-2 integrates multiple high-precision sensors to continuously monitor friction, wear, and other tribological signals during testing.
Real-time data acquisition provides detailed insight into contact behavior, lubrication mechanisms, and surface interactions, allowing researchers to detect transitions, failures, and performance changes as they occur.
Wide Temperature Control (–50 °C to 180 °C)
The HPT-2 supports testing across a temperature range from –35 °C to 100 °C, enabling evaluation of friction and wear behavior under both cold and elevated temperature conditions. This capability is essential for studying lubricant viscosity changes, thermal effects on materials, and tribological performance in realistic operating environments.
Designed for Severe Operating Conditions
Built for demanding research and industrial environments, the HPT-2 allows testing of lubricants, coatings, and materials under severe mechanical and environmental conditions. Its robust design supports advanced tribology studies aimed at improving durability, reducing friction losses, and optimizing performance of components operating under extreme pressure and load.
