Modification of Abrasive Wear Testing Machine and Testing of Materials

The present work deals with modifying the existing abrasive wear testing machine by incorporating measuring instrument like thermocouple and to increase the scope of testing by using different lining materials. The wear of all specimens are compared and conclusions are drawn based on the data obtained. The change in wear with respect to time, different loads and lining materials are studied. The temperature variations in the materials under the different variables were studied and obtained results are reported.
