The SFC20 is a Sideway-force Coefficient Routine Investigation Machine (SCRIM) that performs dynamic friction testing on road surfaces using a specialised measuring tyre. It uses a double-sided configuration with dynamic vertical-load measurement and an integrated watering system whose flow is dynamically controlled by speed for consistent test conditions. Tyre temperature and pressure are monitored with refill capability, and calibration requires no factory recalibration.
