This jig

base which can be fitted with one of a variety of plates
included with the kit. A square plunger is fitted to the
test machine's crosshead and supplies the compression force.
The test involves weighing a suitable sample quantity which
is placed into the cell with either a slotted or a
perforated plate. The result is determined by measuring the
resulting force required to extrude the sample.
