Brookfield Engineering Laboratories is offering two courses that will provide users of its instrumentation with hands-on knowledge to get the most out of their viscosity test methods.
These day-long training sessions are presented in easy-to-understand terms that give attendees the working know-how to verify and improve upon the data required for meaningful research and development (RandD) and quality control (QC) testing.
The courses are offered at Brookfield's facility in Middleboro, MA, and at major metropolitan areas across the US.
Arrangements can also be made to conduct the course at customers' facilities where content can be adapted to their specific product applications.
The practical course on viscosity measurements provides attendees with the tools and concepts they need to make precise viscosity measurements.
This course is designed to benefit operators at all levels of experience and participants are encouraged to bring product samples for testing where hands-on time is provided in a relaxed laboratory environment.
Dates for the practical course on viscosity measurement include: 9 September, Middleboro, MA; 15 September, Kansas City, MO; 6 October, Middleboro, MA; 19 October, San Francisco, CA; 21 October, Salt Lake City, UT; 4 November, Middleboro, MA; 18 November, Cleveland, OH.
The applied course on viscosity test methods is designed for the intermediate to advanced Brookfield instrumentation user in RandD, analytical, QC and process engineering functions.
Focusing on test methods and techniques, it will review and discuss how Brookfield rotational viscometers and rheometers can be used to provide meaningful product analysis.
The course takes participants beyond pass/fail criteria to an understanding of how to apply viscometric data as a problem-solving and product performance/processing tool.
The applied course on viscosity test methods will be held on 16 September in Kansas City, MO; and 7 October in Middleboro, MA.
