AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

This patented technology uses an apparatus called Frictional Energy Measurement (FME) for accurately detecting how well different materials are wearing together during use or moving over them. By comparing this data against previous measurements made by other methods, it provides valuable insights into factors affecting durability performance.

Problems solved by technology

This technical problem addressed in this patents relates to accurately determining both how well worn out a tube's inner layer material has been made up without increasing costs while ensuring accurate measurements over longer periods of usage.
