In-Depth Viscosity Measurement Training Courses

Brookfield Engineering offers its Practical Course on Viscosity Measurements. This popular course is designed to help Brookfield viscometer users comprehend the functionality of their instrument, solve the mysteries of fluid behaviour and Rheology, and create successful and repeatable viscosity test methods for use in both R&D and QA/QC environments. Consistent measurement is vital in the success of any product and understanding viscosity is a key part to maintaining quality control.

The course is offered at Brookfield’s headquarters in Middleboro, MA and at major cities across the United States. Space is limited and customers are encouraged to sign up early. ‘On-Demand’ courses are conducted at the customers’ facilities or at Brookfield’s headquarters.
