Wear Testing & Friction Analysis

Lab Services & Consulting

NANOVEA provides wear testing and friction analysis lab services to evaluate material durability, coatings performance, and tribological behavior under controlled conditions.

These services are used to measure coefficient of friction, wear rate, abrasion resistance, and surface degradation for applications requiring independent, repeatable testing.

Testing is performed using tribometers engineered and manufactured by NANOVEA, with configurable motion, load control, and environmental modules, supporting ASTM and ISO wear and friction test standards.

TRIBOMETERS

NANOVEA Tribometer is a powerful and adaptable all-in-one friction and wear tester with the widest range of testing and environmental modules on the market. The simple design of a NANOVEA Tribometer allows for fast interchangeability to accommodate for any research need and requirement or standard.

Advanced Pneumatic Technology allows for stable applications of normal force at speeds of 0.001 to 15000 rpm (10+ m/s) for highly accurate wear, scratch, friction, lubrication and mechanical property evaluations, which are then measured in seconds with an integrated NANOVEA 3D Optical Profilometer.

Wear Testing Modules include Rotational, Linear, Block-On-Ring, Ring-On-Ring and Scratch. Tribometer environmental modules include Corrosion, High and Low Temperature, Liquid and Humidity. NANOVEA Tribometers are a culmination of over 25 years of experience empowering materials testing and quality control in companies all over the world.

For specialized applications, we also offer a brake friction tester for automotive R&D, designed to simulate real-world braking conditions with pneumatic load control, high torque, and rapid speed modulation.

NANOVEA designs and manufactures instruments for materials testing and quality control. 

Our Profilometers, Tribometers and Mechanical Testers can be found in renowned education and industrial organizations around the world.

For over 25 years, researchers and companies dealing with the most demanding applications have been relying on our unmatched range of consulting and materials testing services.
