Liquid modules are used to carry out wear and friction experiments in liquids or lubricants. Different liquid solutions can simulate the wear process for realistic applications for various industrial applications. How does it work? For example, the biomaterials for biological replacements such as joints, stents, and dental roots, require excellent long-term resistance and adequate strength in a liquid environment. The parts in the motor engines should be protected by proper lubrication to reduce wear and friction and to extend lifespan. Combining with the precise control of speed and continuous change of speed, a continual Stribeck Curve for the test lubricant can be measured. A liquid heating coil is available to heat the liquid in the cups up to 150°C. An accessory to the cup is the drop by drop lubrication option which allows lubrication test even at 5000rpm. Extreme Versatility Modules - Rotative - Linear - Scratch - Block-on-Ring & Ring-on-Ring Wear (custom) Properties Analyzed - Wear Rates - Friction versus speed - Stribeck Curve
Simulate real braking conditions in the lab with NANOVEA’s Brake Friction Tester. Engineered for brake pad wear, friction behavior, and temperature control — with pneumatic high-loads, rapid air cooling, and precision torque. NANOVEA T2000 with Brake Friction Tester System A brake friction tester is a specialized tribological instrument that measures coefficient of friction (COF), wear rate, and thermal behavior of braking materials. Unlike full-vehicle tests, lab-based friction testers allow controlled, repeatable testing of brake pads and linings under load, speed, temperature, and lubrication variables. NANOVEA’s brake testing tribometer supports: - Pneumatic loading up to 2000 N - Precision speed control (0.01–15000 rpm) - Rapid air-cooling & temperature monitoring - Real-time COF and wear tracking - Custom rotor/pad fixture configurations A friction tester for braking materials must reproduce pad–rotor contact under controlled load, speed, and temperature. NANOVEA’s system is engineered for brake pad testing in R&D and QC: pneumatic loading up to 2,000 N, precision speed control (0.01–15,000 rpm), and real-time COF with temperature monitoring. Unlike generic friction testers, this configuration is optimized for rotor/pad coupons and can map wear rate, fade, and recovery as conditions change. Teams use it to compare OEM vs. aftermarket pads, validate friction modifiers, and shorten iteration cycles before vehicle-level dynamometer tests. Applications in Aerospace Braking Systems: NANOVEA’s brake friction tester is used to evaluate aircraft brake materials, carbon composites, and high-temperature friction systems where repeatability, wear resistance, and thermal stability are critical. With the correct sensors and fixtures, friction material testing on the bench yields data that correlates with full-scale brake events: - Coefficient of friction (COF) vs. load, speed, and temperature - Pad wear rate and rotor wear (mass loss / profilometry) - Thermal fade & recovery during repeated stops - Noise, vibration, and harshness (NVH) indicators under load ramps - Material stability (binder, fiber, and filler effects) across duty cycles Results support brake testing solutions in passenger, EV, motorsport, and aftermarket applications where repeatability and small sample size matter. Used across automotive, EV, motorcycle, racing, and OEM R&D, NANOVEA’s brake tribometer helps teams: - Develop & validate brake pad materials - Compare aftermarket vs. OEM pad performance - Monitor fade resistance & recovery - Study thermal expansion under friction - Optimize friction materials for NVH, wear & safety
