Why Choose the MFT-5000?
- Patented In-line 3D Profilometry: The only system that integrates a 3D profilometer to measure surface changes (wear track depth and volume) over time with sub-nanometer resolution without removing the sample.
- Extreme Environment Flexibility: Offering testing environments from -120°C to 1200°C, vacuum, humidity control, and lubricant immersion.
- Unmatched Versatility: A single platform supports rotary, reciprocating, block-on-ring, scratch and fretting tests through interchangeable modules.
- Superior Load Range: Equipped with sensitive load cells that cover forces from mN up to 12,000 N, featuring negligible thermal drift for high-precision data.
