UMT TriboLab Mechanical Tester and Tribometer • Versatility Without Compromise Innovation with Integrity Tribology & Mechanical Testing

UMTTriboLab The MostVersatileTribology System Ever Designed Bruker's Universal Mechanical Tester (UMT) platform has been the most versatile and widely used tribometer on the market since the first model debuted in 2000. Now, newly designed from the ground up, the UMTTriboLab™ builds on that legacy of versatility with a unique modular concept that harnesses more functionality than ever before — all without any compromise in performance. In fact, the UMTTriboLab offers higher speeds, more torque, and better force measurement than any of its predecessors or competitors, plus it introduces...

Solid Testing Begins with a Solid Base The Bruker UMT platform has become the standard for tribology and mechanical test labs around the world. There are now more than six hundred systems, encompassing three generations of development and product improvements, in use globally in the research laboratories of industry leaders, top universities, and national labs. Today, most instruments available for tribology testing are single-function testers, and none are designed with the same range of versatile modularity as the UMT TriboLab. Within minutes the platform can be transformed from rotary to...

Modular Drives for Maximum Versatility Quick changeover of drives using tool-less clamping allows the user to position the drive easily, then lock it into place in seconds. Precision-machined base ring keeps testing planes aligned and maximizes accuracy. Each hardware component includes a Tribo ID chip. Software interrogates the system, interprets the chip and “understands” the configuration without operator-entered commands. Software menus are customized based on configuration, highlighting the most useful commands and hiding the irrelevant ones. No cable connections are required for...

Complete, Uncompromised Testing The ultimate goal of tribology testing is to understand how materials, surfaces and lubricants will perform under real-world conditions. Of course, the real world presents an endless variety of environments. The UMT TriboLab is designed to closely mimic the widest array of real-world environments through its flexible accessories. Following the efficiency principles of modularity and versatility, TriboLab accessories can be added as needed to standard drives for the maximum possible flexibility. Recirculating Liquid Containers Rotary and reciprocating drives...

High-Load, High-Performance Sensors Unparalleled Force Measurement at Lowest Noise Levels Additional Advanced Sensors for Complete Dynamics Characterization At the end of the day it’s the data that matters. The flexibility, range of test capabilities, and high- and low-temperature testing accessories are all huge benefits, but without good data they all mean nothing. The UMT TriboLab excels at producing highly accurate and repeatable test data. TriboLab utilizes the latest developments in sensor technology from Bruker, featuring circuitry completely redesigned to reduce noise to an absolute...

Simple… Better… Simply Better! When it comes to conducting tribology tests, whether for academic research or for new product development, the key word is “output. TriboScript was developed specifically to improve output by simplifying test scripting, ” analyzing, and reporting. Through interaction with the Tribo ID chips on the test hardware, the software “understands” the configuration and optimizes the menus to show only the active features. Instead of the laborious scripting requirements typical of similar test tools, TriboScript employs a simple, icon-based user interface. Simply drag...
