ForceBoard™ – Precision Friction Tester with unmatched friction testing functionality 

friction tester

ForceBoard™ is a precision friction tester and motorized universal 2D force tester that allows you to conduct friction testing on a wide range of materials, surfaces, and components. It measures both static and dynamic coefficients of friction with ease, making it one of the most versatile coefficient of friction testers and tribometers available anywhere in the world. ForceBoard also allows you to study the COF's normal force dependency within seconds and it can be used to test thin film friction according to ASTM D1894 and other international testing standards. 

​​

Friction tests can be performed with single or multiple strokes in both dry, lubricated or even submerged conditions via our easy to use test fixtures.

 

In addition to friction testing, the system offers linear wear and scratch testing. It comes with easy-to-use Windows software for real-time measurements, graphing, and exporting to Excel and other data analysis tools along with a 100% user satisfaction guarantee.

 

Simple, precise and versatile - a friction tester has never been easier to operate.
