How is the 90-degree peel test performed?
A standard 90-degree peel test involves four main steps:

Fundamentals of Adhesion (Peel) 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 manufactures.

Common test methods and standards
Internationally recognised standards ensure that compressibility and recovery testing is consistent and repeatable across laboratories and production sites.

Fundamentals of Texture Testing Analysis
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.

How wing tear testing is performed
Specimen geometry and preparation
Testing accuracy begins with correct specimen preparation. For wing tear tests, samples are cut into shapes with two projecting wings joined by a narrow central region where the tear initiates.

Electrical assembly component strength
Customised engineering example
Due to the complex, asymmetric shapes of electrical assemblies, it can be difficult to grip the soldered, fused and welded parts in a way that mimic the forces applied when in use.
