3D Analysis in tribology

The understanding of tribological processes such as friction and wear analysis is essential for the optimisation of many mechanical processes. In contrast to conventional methods, which are based on the analysis of 2D data, InfiniteFocus® provides numerical quantification and detailed 3D surface characterization.

With the InfiniteFocus® corroded surfaces can be studied through volumetric material oxidation rate determination.

In e.g. wear analysis, the optical system allows easy and reliable abrasion measurement of thin coat. Depth, thickness of the coat as well as the true wear-volu­me of artificially produced crates are measured. Corro­ded surfaces can be studied through volumetric material oxidation rate determination.
