DESIGN OF FILM THICKNESS INSTRUMENT FOR FIBRE POLYMER COMPOSITES TRIBOLOGICAL EXPERIMENTS

New technique to measure film thickness in tribological experiments is presented in the current study. The technique is based on strain gauges circuit fixed on a lever of the block on ring (BOR) machine. Conversion of strain gauge readings was made to determine the film thickness values. For testing...
