Friction Test

Friction testing evaluates roller performance under continuous load, ensuring smooth rotation, minimal rotational resistance, and optimal energy efficiency during heavy-duty operations.
The rollers are operated at 1200 rpm and subsequently allowed to self-decelerate to a standstill.
The time elapsed is used to estimate the coefficient of friction, which shouldn’t be greater than 0.015 to qualify the product as fit.

Procedure

How the friction test is performed

High-Speed Operation

The roller is driven up to a constant rotational speed of 1200 RPM under continuous test load.

Apply Water Spray

Controlled water spray is applied to the roller and bearing areas using multiple spray nozzles.

Free Deceleration Measurement

Power is disconnected, allowing the roller to freely self-decelerate until it reaches a complete standstill.

Coefficient Calculation

The total deceleration time is measured to calculate the coefficient of friction, ensuring it stays at or below 0.015.

Dust Test

Our rollers undergo controlled dust exposure to evaluate sealing performance and prevent dust penetration into critical bearing areas.

Water Test

Water resistance testing evaluates the sealing efficiency of rollers under high-moisture and wet environments, ensuring complete internal protection, corrosion resistance, and prolonged operational lifespan.
