Four Ball Testing is designed to test lubricant properties under
various conditions.
various conditions.
How does it work?
The setup is three balls in contact that are fixed but rotates in
relation to the center point. A fourth ball centered on that center
point comes down to make contact and put controlled pressure.
A lubricant to be studied fills the full area and friction is studied.
