Have your own RST, PFT, or FT4?

Let me tell you what inputs to use to get the most useful data or let me analyze your test results following Andrew Jenike's analyses (and a couple of my own).

Some testers have their own hopper design modules but don't trust them! Contact me if you'd like me to send you the same computer tools that I use.

And if you are considering purchasing a shear cell tester, please contact me for an unbiased opinion of which one to procure (I've used most of them) and recommendations for other powder testing equipment.
