Wire strippers can be used to safely, quickly and reliably remove insulation from electrical wires of various thicknesses. To ensure a high level of operating comfort when using the wire strippers, the actuating force that the operator must apply should not be too great. When testing this force, a defined maximum value must not be exceeded. Technical features of the comp...

I barely use it I don’t need any control! I maintain it very well, what could happen? As strong as they may seem, hardness testers are neither unbreakable nor eternal! Both the prolonged use and the state of inactivity can generate problems that if underestimated could compromise the reliability of the instrument in its use. That is why international standards recomme...

The dynamic viscosity coefficient of a coating represents the resistance value of the coating particles to movement or stress. Knowing the dynamic viscosity coefficient of the coating will allow the operator to better understand how much fluid must be applied to obtain the desired results. How to measure the dynamic viscosity coefficient? The digital rotary viscometer...
The Vickers hardness test is one of the static mechanical tests that can be used to measure the hardness of materials. In specific, the force used for the indentation of the material is determined, followed by the optical measurement of the size of the indentation. This means that it is the optical acquisition of the indentation size generated by the indenter, together...
Let’s get straight to the point: the thermal expansion is a phenomenon that causes an increasing in the volume of the metal, strictly related to the rise of the temperature. But I guess you already knew that. Clearly, the coefficient of thermal expansion changes, based changes from a metal to another. For example, the aluminum (72 X 10−6 °C−1 ) or iron and steel (both ...

Some materials cannot be tested conventionally with ultrasound. For this purpose, air-coupled ultrasonic testing is a suitable method. Because the test method has not yet been standardized, the “Deutsche Gesellschaft für Zerstörungsfreie Prüfung (DGZfP)” subcommittee “Air-coupled ultrasonic testing” has worked for a long time to finally publish a guideline. We would li...
