Abstract

A Pin on disc wear rate testing machine has been successfully developed. This is a pointer that local content can be built within our research space and institutions. The development became necessary as it serves as a boost in the utilization of locally made materials for the production of laboratory equipment.  The development of the laboratory machine was carried out by designing for the various machine components using mathematical formulae and  graphical  modeling. The designed laboratory equipment developed a turning torque of 9.55Nm which produced a centrifugal force of 318.3N. The diameter  of the solid shaft and power transmitted by belt  and belt weight were calculated to be  27mm, 1758.23watt and weight of 15.4N respectively. The developed machine in capable of competing with imported Wear test laboratory equipment.
