How is the wear of iglidur iglidur plain bearings measured?

Lars Butenschön | 7. July 2019

The iglidur Expert system works on the basis of hundreds of thousands of measurements performed systematically in our tribo laboratory . Usually, in these tribological tests, wear-related material losses are determined by measuring the volume of wear and the weight loss of the bearing. In our experience, it is more practical to directly measure the […]
