Texture Testing for Bakery Applications
The primary goal for using instrumentation to measure texture is to capture an objective value to something that is typically evaluated very subjectively. Texture cannot be controlled unless it measured in a consistent and repeatable manner.

Puncture/penetration jigs
Puncture tests are performed to determine the resistance of a material to a sharp or blunt object passing right through it. As such, they normally require the measurement of a peak load.

Webinar: Adhesion/Peel strength testing
There is a reason people reach for duct tape as a fix for almost everything – adhesion strength.
From busted pipes to ripped furniture, the preference for a solution that “does not easily peel off” is the guiding principle for manufacturers.
