Dry Friction

Specification:

1. Mechanical friction between 2 solid bodies
2. Friction body stationary, support friction surface in a moving carriage
3. 2 friction bodies each with 2 different surfaces
4. 3 support friction surfaces with a total of 4 different surfaces
5. Carriage driven by cable pulley and motor
6. 2 driving speeds via a graduated cable drum
7. Force measuring unit: force gauge and adjustable air damper
8. Force measuring unit height-adjustable
9. Lines of action of friction force and tensile force always parallel
10. Adjustable air damper – with damping: measurement of a mean friction force adjusted by disturbances, without damping: slip/stick effects measurable
11. Tray to house the components
