MPR (Micro Pitting Rig)
/ Operation

Before a test can be run, a suitable profile is selected. A test profile stores all of the operating conditions for a particular test in a convenient data file format (loads, speeds etc). The profile editor supplied with the MPR is a stand-alone application, which allows the user to create and edit test profiles.

Once a valid profile and filename has been selected, the test will then start automatically. The main display will show the accelerometer trace in the upper graph (the X axis shows the roller rotation angle in degrees, the Y axis shows the centre line average of the accelerometer signal), the current test conditions are shown on the left hand side.
