Tribology Testing & Mechanical Testing

World's Leading Producer of Mechanical Testers & Tribological Tools

Bruker's tribological tools and mechanical testing products incorporate innovative, leading-edge technologies — including proprietary multi-sensing technology with high-sample-rate data-acquisition hardware & software, highest-accuracy force sensors and amplifiers, high-frequency acoustic emission sensors and amplifiers, and more. These world-leading tools and testers set the standard for tribology and mechanical testing, and are capable of performing a wide spectrum of operations to characterize nano, micro, and macro properties under harsh environmental conditions. These systems have been successfully utilized in numerous academic labs for fundamental materials research, important breakthroughs in studies of thin films, as well as in factories for precise quality control of ink-jet cartridges, razor blades, industrial oils, and many other products.
