When discussing material strength, a material only needs to be as strong as necessary. Other properties like lightness, manufacturability, and sustainability also matter. Paper can be the ideal choice with resourceful processing and innovative design, despite being seemingly weaker as a raw material.

UTM is versatile and cost-effective, evaluating physical properties while adhering to industry standards. They test durability and establish load thresholds for functionality, safety during use, and minimum loads for usability, improving the quality of the final product.

In this article, we narrow the focus to the specific domain of crush testing for granules, pellets, and similar test specimens.

Quality materials are the route to quality products. For a product to be fit-for-purpose and meet legislative and commercial requirements it must check several boxes.

We review essential software specifications and cover how those attributes can be leveraged when considering computer-controlled physical product testing equipment in the lab or on the shop floor.

The tensile testing processes remain constant and with a good understanding of your organization’s relevant quality assurance requirements, dealing with evolving external factors can be relieved.
