NewSkin partners ML ENGRAVING srl  and Institute of Dynamics and Vibration Research have produced successful results as part of their latest NewSkin OITB work on enhancing the tribological performance (friction, wear, and lubrication of interacting surfaces) of an industrial component.

In the image in Fig1, you can see a metallic surface that has been modified by laser surface texturing to optimise the tribological performance of an industrial component. This functional surface was produced by NewSkin OITB partner ML ENGRAVING srl using modern laser technologies, and then tested at the NewSkin testing facility at the Institute of Dynamics and Vibration Research (LUH).

The Institute of Dynamics and Vibration Research  has a wide range of test equipment to analyse and evaluate the tribological performance of functional surfaces in relative motion. In addition, the institute can perform high-precision surface analysis using an optical 3D system. These testing facilities are accessible to you through NewSkin OITB platform.

If you are interested in solutions to increase the performance of your components by surface nanotechnologies NewSkin OITB facilities and services are for you. Please feel free to contact us on info@NewSkin-OITB.eu !
