About this event
See a PIP test run live on an AM printed part!
Interested in PIP but not sure how it actually works in practice? Curious how a stress strain curve can be obtained from indentation? Here's your chance to join our materials scientists as they show just how quickly and easily you can characterise an AM part.

Jimmy Campbell Chief Technology Officer @ PlastometrexT
As Chief Technology Officer I have developed numerical methods for rapid extraction of mechanical properties from indentation data. These are deployed in our method to extract stress-strain curves from an indentation test, which is called Profilometry based Indentation Plastometry (PIP).
