Testing for Compatibility
Fabrico has in-house testing for materials, adhesives, and electrical characteristics. Testing can determine:
- Whether the material from the supplier meets the project specifications
- Potential alternative materials with the same characteristics
- The electrical properties of the material
- Whether or not the application requires an adhesive
- Matching the right adhesive to the material
- The projected lifetime of the bond and the acceptable time-to-failure
- The physical loads on the bond
- The environmental conditions during operation
- The possibility of adhesive failure
- The assembly requirements for the project
Fabrico can offer the following tests:
- Part Dimension Verification – a computerized gantry video measuring system;
- Material Strength Testing – a tensile tester, up to 100 lb/in;
- Material Weight Testing – scale measures 250 gram max, .00001 gram self-calibrating balance;
- Adhesive/Release Liner Testing – an adhesion/release tester of 3 grams/in-5 lb/in;
- Static Shear Testing – 10 bank static shear tester;
- Dielectric Strength Testing – AC dielectric test unit 50 KVAC;
- Resistance and Voltage Testing – calibrated precision benchtop multimeter, and power supply and precision digital multimeter;
- Microscopic Imaging – digital microscope with CCD video output.
