System for testing the risk of creaking with combinations of materials

Ziegler Instruments in Mönchengladbach, Germany develops and manufactures test systems that are able to predict the risk of creaking noises due to stick-slip vibrations. In this way, the movement of different material combinations relative to each other - so-called „stick-slip“ - can be examined. For example, a passenger car driving for 100,000km can be simulated in the laboratory in just a few hours.
