Accelerometer Signal Simulators vs. Calibrators: What to Use and When
In high-reliability industries like aerospace, defense, and industrial diagnostics, precise vibration measurements are essential. But verifying and maintaining that accuracy depends on using the right tool and that’s where accelerometer calibrators and simulators come into play. While they’re often mentioned together, calibrators and simulators serve different purposes. Misunderstanding the distinction can lead to incorrect testing methods, wasted time, or even compromised data quality. This blog will help you understand the difference between accelerometer simulators and calibrators, compare key specifications, and identify the best use case for each. Calibrator vs. Simulator: Understanding the Tools Let’s start with a quick [...]

CEMENT BOARD QUALITY CONTROL
Cement backer board is used as underlayment for tile floors, walls and counter tops. It is also used as exterior sheathing and in exterior stucco systems. Cement backer board has proven to be more durable than virtually any other underlayment if quality control and thickness is maintained. The Problem: A major cement board manufacturer was faced with the challenge to improve a board production line throughput and decrease the amount of waste in the process. Too thin of cement board material weakens it structurally, while board that is too thick wastes material and resources, as well as drives up production costs. [...]
