Kort beskrivning
Luleå University of Technology (LTU) is doing research and teaching in Tribology. Research projects are based on public funding as well as funding from industry. An important field of research of our group is the studies of pitting and micro pitting behaviour of different metal/lubricant — combinations.
Suitable and dedicated equipment for pitting/micro pitting equipment is currently missing in the laboratory at the division of machine elements, Tribolab. Therefore, LTU wish to obtain new equipment for pitting and micro pitting investigation as a complement to all the other tribology test rigs present at Tribolab.
