Background

In this application study, three point bend testing was performed on an entire package of Carr’s crackers with the TA.XTPlus and Reference Acoustic Envelope Detector (RAED). Stable Micro System’s Reference Acoustic Envelope Detector (RAED) works in conjunction with the TA.XTPlus Texture Analyzer to capture and sync sound in decibels with an extremely high quality, calibrateable condenser microphone. Sound data adds to the analysis of a conventional three point bend test because it can detect and quantify behaviors that express themselves differently when captured with only the force data channel.
