/Rheometer – Stability against shear
Rheometer – Stability against shear
Stability against shear
- DIN 51810-1
- For Oils, greases and pastes
- Focuses on the total system
- Rheology is the measuring and description of the flow properties of a substance and how its behavior is influenced by solid and liquid components.
- Relevant for pumps, conveying, stirring, mixing and bearing applications
- Customizable in the test setup for rotating and oscillating shear, in temperature and mechanical load
→Test setup can be customized to meet the precise problem question
- Describes dynamic viscosity and mechanical stability before and after shear

Tribo-cell
- Tibolo-cell-PTD 200 (Anton Paar)
- For Oils. Greases, pastes, dispersion, bonded coatings
- Characterization of the lubricity (coefficient of friction and wear) for the model system ball-on-three-plates udner mechanical load
- Load: 1-23 N normal force
- Temperature range: -40 - +200°C
- Speed: up to 3000 U/min
- Determination of the Stribeck graph and measurement of the coefficient of friction
- Bearing option for testing the lubricants lubricity in bearings
