Case study
Electrical connector insertion and withdrawal forces
Customised engineering example
Push-fit electrical connectors with hole or dimple detents (also known as 'spade terminals') must offer a firm but practical fit.

Case study
Rotating Vacuum Peel System
Requirement
Testing was required for a range of flexible plastic trays of the same dimension but with differing forms, containing biscuits and confectionary.
191
Case study
Measuring shear strength of loose building materials
Customised engineering example
The shear strength of compacted materials (e.g. soil and sand) can be awkward to test.

Case study
Peel testing vacuum-formed containers
Customised engineering example
Semi-rigid thermoformed packaging, sealed by film or foil, is commonly tested by the '45-degree peel method'. This best represents how a person would open the package.
