The World Tribology Congress III (WTC III) is a global information exchange, featuring engineering and scientific solutions that are vital to our industrial technologies such as lubricants, wear, tribochemistry, additives, bearings, engines, materials, surface engineering and aerospace. WTC III features over 900 technical presentations; discussions of new applications, and a number of international organizations exhibiting related technologies and services.

This international event will bring together tribology scientists, researchers and engineers from over 60 countries, as well as participants from over 35 cooperating associations. The conference and exhibition will offer a unique opportunity to foster and establish contacts with participants from all over the world. Conference participants will be able to talk directly with peers who are reporting new advances in research, initiating and managing projects, and implementing new methods and products.

The venue for WTC III was carefully selected by the organizers in order to maximize the longer-term impact of this event on the larger scientific and business community. The high-profile environment of Washington DC presents an extraordinary opportunity to demonstrate the positive impact of tribology and tribology research on some of the world’s most urgent needs and challenges. We look forward to meeting you in Washington, DC! Click here to download the Conference-at-a-Glance.
