MPR (Micro-Pitting-Rig)

 

 

The MPR System (PCS Instruments) – is a three-contact disc machine in which there are three ‘counterface’ rings with a smaller diameter roller located in the middle and in contact with all the rings.  The Micropitting rig and test specimens have been designed to reproduce the lubricated contact conditions which can lead to either micro or macropitting.
