Problem Statement & Deliverables Project Goals Design and build a linearly reciprocating friction test rig that can be used to test wear and friction characteristics of various materials under dry and lubricated conditions. Project deliverables Friction Tester LabVIEW program Operation and Maintenance manuals Constraints Budget Time Adheres to ASTM G133-05 Ethan MSD P15661 Phase I: Problem Definition Review 8/3/2019

Problem Background Dr. Iglesias Victoria is currently researching wear and friction characteristics Develop new lubricants that can be used to improve wear resistance of gearboxes and bearings used in wind turbines. Improve upon the design of the rotational reciprocating test rig The linearly reciprocating test rig will be designed by 2 MSD groups P15660 – Armature Subsystem P15661 – Base Subsystem Matt MSD P15661 Phase I: Problem Definition Review 8/3/2019
