Abstract

The windscreen wipers are used to assure better driver visibility and to clean the frontal window glass of the cars, but they can clean also the back window glass. Usually, the windscreen wiper mechanism is mounted in the lower part of the windscreen (because is more space). The paper presents the wiping performance test and evaluation of the windshield wiper blade after the water and dry friction between this and the windshield, with different speeds. After tests will be done, the results will be collected and compared, but in the paper present only the representative charts.
