Density that tells you more than you think
🎓 Online course for labs, quality control, purchasing, sales, and production teams
Ref. No.: LAB-5006
Are you planning to buy a Rolbatch density tester or have you already ordered one?
Or maybe your company is already measuring the density of raw materials — but you want to be sure that your team is doing it correctly and in compliance with the standard?
👉 Density is one of the key quality parameters in plastics, rubber, and silicone processing — but knowing the number is not enough.
👉 It is equally important to ensure that the measurement is done correctly and consistently, whether you use a Rolbatch density tester or another device.
👉 This course is a practical online training — video, audio, and 📄 materials — that will teach you step by step how to properly measure material density using the hydrostatic method, in accordance with ISO 1183-1.
By taking this course:
✅ You will implement a standardized density testing procedure in your company
✅ You will minimize the risk of errors and misinterpretation of results
✅ You will ensure that every team member receives high-level training
This course is the perfect complement to the purchase of a Rolbatch density tester.
If you are just considering buying a device — contact us and we will prepare a complete offer including other Rolbatch lab equipment.
