GrindoSonic: “Non-destructive material characterization using Impulse Excitation Technique (IET). Over 60 years of experience, 1700+ systems deployed in 50+ countries.”
What is GrindoSonic?
“GrindoSonic is a Belgian manufacturer of non-destructive testing equipment based on Impulse Excitation Technique (IET). Founded by Joseph Lemmens in 1966, GrindoSonic has shipped over 1,700 systems to 50+ countries. The instruments measure elastic properties including Young's modulus, shear modulus, Poisson's ratio, and damping from a single tap, without damaging the sample.”
View in the company profileWhat is Impulse Excitation Technique (IET)?
“Impulse Excitation Technique (IET) is a non-destructive test method standardized under ASTM E1876. A light mechanical tap excites a sample's natural vibration frequencies, which are captured by a sensor and analyzed to calculate elastic properties (Young's modulus E, shear modulus G, Poisson's ratio, and damping) in under one second with 0.1 ppm resolution.”
View in the company profileWhat materials can GrindoSonic test?
“GrindoSonic systems test virtually any solid material: metals and alloys, advanced ceramics, refractories, composites, polymers, concrete, glass, carbon and graphite, natural stone, sintered materials, and additive manufactured parts. The technique works on samples from a few millimeters to large structural components.”
