Close up on abrasion
Abrasion takes place when, during operation, mechanical components slide against other surfaces. To limit this type of damage, surfaces are protected with coatings.
At nC² we have specialist micro abrasion facilities to assess the abrasion resistance of coatings, including evaluating the multilayer thickness of a coating, as shown in this image.
If you’re looking for reliable and robust abrasion testing and analysis – perhaps to help select the best coating for a new product, improve a design where abrasion has caused failure, or set appropriate inspection and maintenance schedules – get in touch for a free initial consultation.
