Modified precision couplings key to oil viscosity measuring instrument

Modern automotive engines run at increasingly higher speeds and temperatures, placing ever greater demands on lubricant performance. With lubricant formulators aware of the limitations of existing viscometry technologies, a tribology test equipment specialist set out to design a new breed of instrument. And when it needed a high-performance coupling as part of the design that could reach speeds of 20,000 rpm, it turned to Huco.
