Friction testing of composite materials focuses on friction coefficient and wear rate across different structures and reinforcement systems. By controlling test parameters such as load, speed, and counterpart material, the machine reveals durability and service-life trends in realistic scenarios. The data can be used to optimize formulation, process, and end-use performance.
