A Visitor from Thailand

A Visitor from Thailand Yuttachai, from Prince of Songkla University visited IDM Instruments in May to undertake product training for one of our machines under our managing director, Tommy. Yuttachai stayed for 2 days, learning the ins-and-outs of how to use our machinery, to bring that knowledge back to Thailand to share with his team at the university.  His stay was not only educational about our machinery and usages, but it was also education because he got to experience Australia food (steaks), and Australian culture (saw some kangaroos up close and personal). It was a pleasure having you Yuttachai, and I hope you enjoyed your stay in Australia!

Cobb Moisture Testing with IDM

Image
Cobb Moisture Absorption Test Ring & Roller This method for measuring water absorption of sized papers is used all over the world. A dry test piece of suitable paper is placed under the cylinder. The 100ml of water is poured over the test piece. After a specified time the water is poured off and the test piece is placed on standardized blotting paper. Another blotting paper is placed on top of the test piece and the excess water is removed by means of the roller. The test piece is then weighed again and the results are calculated and reported as absorption in grams per m2, according to the standard method.
