Why to use food grade lubricants? The food processing industry relies on food grade lubricants and like any other industries has seen challenging times. With retailers constantly squeezing down prices to become highly competitive, growing […]
What is waterjet machining? Waterjet machining can be referred to as a material removal process which uses a high velocity stream of water or a mixture of water and abrasives. Waterjet machining can be categorized […]
Introduction May it be a frozen fast food snack like pizza, or frozen meat like chicken wings, fish or veg items such as minced spinach, green pea or corn, we normally buy it from supermarket […]
Petrus van Musschenbroek, born in Leiden (Netherlands), was a famous scientist and inventor, natural philosopher, experimental physicist, engineer, instrument builder, experimenter, in the continental Newtonian tradition of Boerhaave and ‘s Gravesande. And: a tribologist. He […]
The article is sponsored by Bruker. Friction is the great obstacle to overcome when testing new products with moving parts. While friction can never disappear completely, it may be possible to achieve ultralow friction: a […]
A new breakthrough in lubricant formulation with special focus on use of lubricants which are developed for applications in confined spaces and requirements of low lubricant quantities. These lubricants are composed of non-magnetic solid particles […]
It might seem weird to talk about percolation through static seals in a Tribological context. After all, they are static: there is no rubbing, no tribos. However, there is much to learn about percolation through […]
It is estimated that about 30% of world’s primary energy is consumed by excessive friction every year and about 60% of machines fail or stop for maintenance due to frictional damage. Above that, 50% of […]
Ever-growing customer demands lead to tougher material requirements. New high-performing materials and surface treatments become available every week with properties which were thought impossible. However, replacing the material of a machine component comes at a […]
