In the world of tribological testing, where accuracy and repeatability are crucial, standard tests are often accompanied by problems: inaccurate results, high error rates and unpredictable costs. But one company has taken on the challenge of revolutionizing the way tribology testing is carried out: Optimol Instruments

With more than 50 years of experience in developing and manufacturing precision test specimens, Optimol Instruments offers solutions that make a real difference in the industry. “We understand the importance of high-quality reference test specimens,” says Gregor Patzer, spokesman of the company. “Our experience and understanding of the details of tribological testing have prompted us to develop the perfect solution.”

The problem regarding conventional tests is their unreliability. Several repeat tests have to be often carried out to achieve usable results, which not only takes time but also results in high operating costs. The risk of failures and unnecessary material costs is particularly high.

Optimol Instruments has recognized this problem and offers reference test specimens that consistently meet the specifications set forth in the international ISO, ASTM and DIN standards for many years. The result: Test accuracy increases significantly and risk of failures decreases to less than 1%.

And more: Optimol Instruments not only provides standardized test specimens, but also customized solutions made from a wide range of materials such as gear steel, stainless steel, aluminium and even ceramics. These test specimens are 100% traceable and are supplied with a certificate confirming compliance with all relevant specifications.

What makes Optimol Instruments special: not only its precision, but also its cost efficiency. Thanks to the innovative design, the test specimens can be used several times, reducing the cost of consumables per test to less than 10 euros – an unbeatable advantage for companies that depend on high test frequencies.

Optimol Instruments not only provides accurate results, but also a solution that helps you to reduce costs and increase the efficiency of your tests. In the world of tribology, there is no compromise – and Optimol is setting new standards.
