Testing Services

Palmer can perform virtually any mixing test on granular to powder materials with any liquid chemical system. We can perform resin mixing tests, reclamation tests, both mechanical and thermal, as well as rebonding cycle tests.

While our strength is in foundry sands, we have performed tests and trials on frac sand, rubber crumb, adhesives, wood fiber, salt, baghouse fines, oxides, carbon, titanium, carbide, and many others.

Our laboratory, The Strausbaugh Technology Center, is equipped with the necessary equipment to perform standard foundry sand tests: LOI, ADV, Screen Analysis, Tensile Testing, Transverse Testing, pH Testing, Percent Sodium or Potassium Testing, as well as other non-foundry tests.

We can meter mix aggregate powders, liquids, and chemicals of all kinds. Our extensive knowledge of solids and liquid metering in addition to our 35 years of mixing experience makes us an ideal testing lab for many industrial and manufacturing applications.

Our facility is equipped to handle extensive tests including: sand testing, degassing, metal filtration, drying, mixing, core blowing and more. We will complete testing as specified by you, and provide you with written documentation of the testing results. In addition, we welcome the opportunity to take a closer look at how your material will perform with Palmer’s equipment. Test fees can be applied to the total price when you purchase Palmer equipment within 6 months of the test results (up to 5% of the total equipment cost). This takes the guesswork out of the equation and reinforces our commitment to providing you with the absolute best equipment for your process.

For quick results, we can record all testing and review the results with you online.
