The expediency of modernization of well-known Timken machine is proved. The way of modernizing Timken machine with a two-lever friction pair loading system is given. The measurement precision and test results informativity under antifriction testing of lubricating and engineering materials are improved. The testing of lubricants using the modernized equipment shows high sensitivity to small changes of mechanical losses, as well as extended informativity of short-term test results.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
