Description

GrindoSonic® MK7 – Advanced Material Characterization System

The GrindoSonic® MK7 is a high-precision instrument for non-destructive measurement of the elastic properties of materials, using the Impulse Excitation Technique (IET). This method allows the identification of cracks, bubbles, and structural flaws in materials such as ceramics, metals, wood, composites, polymers, and concrete, providing accurate data for quality control and applied research.

Material Measurements and Characterization

The GrindoSonic® MK7 determines the moduli of elasticity (E, G) and Poisson's ratio by analyzing the natural frequencies of vibration. This technology enables detailed inspection of structural materials, providing essential data for mechanical evaluation, quality control, and component sizing in industrial and laboratory applications.

Main Applications

• Testing of grinding wheels, brake pads, abrasives, and friction materials.
• Analysis of construction materials, including bricks, ceramics, cement, and concrete.
• Characterization of metals, metal alloys, and structural composites.
• Monitoring of production processes and compliance with industrial standards.
• Quality control in reverse engineering and research into new materials.
