Testing
Because everyone has tightened a screw, made an adhesive bond and often assembled thousands of joints in their
lifetime, nearly everyone has an opinion as to which fasteners, processes and tools get the job done best.
Separating the opinion or self-interest from the facts requires the means to quantify the effect of important
parameters and the experience to understand what the numbers mean. Archetype Joint is uniquely qualified, having
both the means and experience to provide that information exclusively and independently of any other activities
and interests.
Fix Problem Joints Permanently
|
|
Specialized equipment and specialized experience beats hoping to get lucky when tasked with
trouble-shooting the latest joint problem.
|
Eliminate Installation Torque Uncertainty
|
|
Reference tables for installation torque are often highly inaccurate, particularly for non-steel
parts. We can determine values specific to your application.
|
Adhesive Bonding Driving You Crazy?
|
|
Testing the sensitivity of surface prep and application variation can be as important as adhesive selection
|
Measure Bolt Tension Directly
|
|
Tension, not torque, determines the holding power of your bolted joints. A more accurate torque
wrench usually costs more than it helps.
|
Settle Competitive Debates
|
|
Third-party benchmarking and testing provides impartial data and direction without taking resources
from product development and support.
