Machines Used for Friction and Wear Testing Tribological characteristics are of interest at both the macro- and micro/nanoscale. For examples of each of these, see Real-life Examples of Tribology. For this reason, methods are needed to test on both scales. The two main methods of testing macro-scale properties are “pin-on-disk” testing and “four ball” testing. To investigate micro/nanoscale properties, nano-scratch has become widely used.
