Abstract

This paper presents an original friction measurement setup. It is designed to uncouple normal and tangential loads. Friction measures acquired with this setup present a high signal to noise ratio. This friction experimental device allows characterizing various types of surfaces and several levels of excitation from static strain to dynamical motion including micro-sliding and macro-sliding. A measurement example is presented for a contact pair of aluminum alloys starting from sticking limit until complete sliding. Finally, in order to use the results in vibration models, a method is proposed to identify the Lugre Model from these measurements.
