Educated Design & Development, Inc.
Safety advocacy group Kids In Danger (KID) recently announced findings from its annual children’s product hazard report, “A Measure of Safety: Children’s Product Recalls in 2011.” This report examines data and trends in children’s products that have been recalled by the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC). This year, KID found that while children’s product recalls have dropped 24 percent since 2010, injuries and other adverse events associated with these recalls grew by an alarming 7 percent. The group also reported that nursery products were the most-recalled category with 30 percent of children’s recalls, followed by toys at 26 percent

Plug Socet & Cord Testing
-
Educated Design & Development, Inc.
Flexing Tests: On flexible cables (or cords sets with fitted plugs), electric tools or hand lamps. Meets requirements of standards such as IEC 60335, IEC 60227, IEC 60745 and UL745. This product is for continuous bending tests of cables or cord sets fitted with plugs. The model F39 allows the simultaneous testing of two samples in it's standard version. This not only allows for substantial time savings, but also allows for the testing current circuits to be simplified by looping through the cables.

Loading Devices
-
Educated Design & Development, Inc.
Sometimes you may need additional loading for abnormal testing (i.e. overload test). Other times, you may need additional loading to simulate worst case normal operation conditions (i.e. input test, temperature test). No matter what your application, we have the loading device to fit your needs! TECH NOTE: Be sure to request our outline titled "Selecting Loads" for assistance in determining the proper rated device for your application.

Impact Testing
-
Educated Design & Development, Inc.
ED&D is the only company in the world currently supplying safety products that actually meet or exceed the specified Rockwell hardness’s that are called for in the standards. Manufacturing to these specifications is an extremely difficult process. In addition, we rely on external laboratories that specialize in Rockwell hardness to verify and certify our results. These are corners our competitors’ often cut, but are vital toward providing equipment that meets or exceeds the requirements! If you’ve purchased product safety test equipment that specified a Rockwell hardness requirement, and you didn’t purchase it from us, chances are you’re using a piece of test equipment that DOES NOT meet the requirements.

IP code Testing
-
Educated Design & Development, Inc.
Ingress Protection Test Equipment is used to determine the degree of protection provided by a product enclosure. The level of protection provided by an enclosure is represented by an "IP" code (i.e. IP43). The first digit indicates protection against ingress of solid foreign objects. Many of these tests require accessibility probes. The equipment for these tests is provided below. All equipment fully complies with IEC 60529 (IP Code standard) and all other international standards with similar tests.

Force & Torque Management
-
Educated Design & Development, Inc.
ED&D digital force gauges can be used in a virtually limitless number of tension and compression testing applications, and are perfect for the various product safety requirements. These units are housed in a heavy metal enclosure, making them the most "rugged" force gauges available -- perfect for testing and lab conditions. All force gauges are able to capture the peak force in both tension and compression and have selectable units of measurement. Force gauge capacities are available for the various requirements, we offer 50N, 200N, 500N and 1000N models in the PFI Series and the AFI Series. ED&D force gauges may be handheld or used with a test stand and/or gripping fixture to create a complete testing solution. All force gauges are CE marked. They come in a custom padded carrying case, includes batteries and an adaptor, as well as a disc accessory attachment, hook attachment, extension rod, metric extension rod, and screws used for mounting gauge to a test stand or use with the gripping fixtures. Available exclusively from ED&D are the attachment finger probes and force discs for testing accessibility as well as stability limits. Torque testing is a way of determining how something will react when it is being turned during operation or twisted to failure - when a force is applied to it in torque. Torque is a turning force, measured in units of force multiplied by unit length. 10Nm, for example, indicates a force of 1kg acting at 1 meter away from the center of rotation. The imperial equivalent of this would be 0.738lbf.ft (pound-feet).
