Brookfield Offers Courses on Viscosity Control
MIDDLEBORO, MA – Brookfield Engineering Laboratories, a manufacturer of viscometers and rheometers, is offering two hands-on courses designed to help users comprehend the functionality of their instrument and solve the mysteries of fluid behavior while creating a successful and repeatable method. The courses are offered at the company’s headquarters in Middleboro, MA, and in major cities across the United States. On-demand courses are conducted at the customers’ facilities or at Brookfield’s headquarters.
The “Practical Course on Viscosity Measurements” is a one-day course designed to help participants get the most out of their Brookfield viscometer and rheometer measurements by providing information, activities and techniques that can be easily understood and used.
