    🤝 Last week, we had the pleasure of hosting a technical workshop together with Ducom Instruments, focused on our testing equipment Four Ball Tester (FBT-3) from PALTRO. This event brought together FBT-3 users from across the region to exchange insights, share feedback, and explore the latest developments in tribological testing. ⚙️ Held at our Lubricants & Metalworking Fluids application laboratory, in Milan, the day included a presentation about the future challenges in lubricants testing through FBT-3, in addition to many contributions from FBT-3 users, and a look at how Azelis is leveraging advanced instrumentation to support innovation in the lubrication sector, with leadership from Daniele Frigerio. 🙏 A big thank you to the Ducom team for organising the event, and to all customers who joined us on-site and remotely. We’re proud to be recognised as a trusted partner for technical exchange and a hub for hands-on innovation in the lubrication sector. #weareazelis #lubricants #innovationthroughformulation
