SUMMARY:Secrets of Reliable Testing
DESCRIPTION:How to avoid common mistakes \nEven the most experienced operators make mistakes. Knowing what those mistakes are — and how to avoid them — can save significant time\, cost\, and frustration. In the materials testing world\, one important question that needs to be asked is: \n“Are you getting inconsistent results even though you are using the same method\, testing machine\, operator\, or material?” \nAfter being contacted for assistance by many customers\, Instron developed the Secrets of Reliable Testing course to address the most common causes of inconsistent results in materials testing. Download the course outline to see the full program. \nFrequently Asked Questions \n\nWho is it for? Machine operators\, lab managers\, quality managers\, and research and development and product development teams.\nIs prior knowledge of materials testing required? Yes\, a basic level of knowledge on using testing machines is recommended.\nHow many people can attend? A maximum of 12 attendees per course.\nDuration: One day.\nLocation: This course is available throughout Europe and can take place at your facility or a local Instron office. Classroom training dates are also available at Instron’s European headquarters in High Wycombe\, UK.\n\nBook This Course
