Context of ASTM E3499-25
ASTM E3499-25 forms the basis for the i3D imprint test (Indentation Plastometry) to determine plastic material properties. The standard defines requirements for test setup, data acquisition, analysis, and reporting so results are reproducible and comparable.
Imprintec supports you in implementing ASTM E3499: from selecting suitable test parameters to analysis (e.g. inverse FEM) and correlation measurements between tensile tests and indentation tests.
