Adrian is joined by one of Sofeast's senior engineers, Paul Adams, who will take us through 7 key tests that importers who are developing new metal and/or plastic products and checking that their quality remains on target after production should consider to check and validate certain critical points in materials, components, and products, such as their hardness, durability, and chemical makeup.
He explains what each test is, the equipment used, the industries and products that use them, and more, so you can decide if they're right for your product.
00:00 - Greetings.
01:04 - Introducing Paul Adams.
02:56 - Today's topic: The tests most importers should consider performing on their hard goods and why.

17:20 - Test 2: Impact test.
25:46 - Test 3: Hardness test.
34:21 - Test 4: Flexural test (bend test).
42:06 - Test 5: Chemical analysis.
49:46 - Test 6: Fatigue testing.
57:09 - Test 7: Creep test.
1:04:26 - Summary of tests covered & wrapping up.
