The cone penetration value gives information on the consistency of the grease. If the cone sinks deeper into the grease, the grease has a lower consistency and will flow more easily. The consistency of greases is divided into different classes by the NLGI. Customers use these classes as an indication of how fluent a grease is at 25 degrees Celsius. The cone penetration test is also used as a way to quickly confirm if the delivered grease is on specifications.
In the early days of grease testing the cone penetration test was thought to say something about the viscosity of the grease. However, since those days it was proven that greases do not have one viscosity but that this viscosity is a very complex variable among others dependent on the greases previous history, on temperature and on time. This is why for theoretical research the cone penetration test does not have a lot of value.

What is sbc of soil?
SBC is the safe bearing capacity of a soil, beyond this value if soil is loaded, it will fail to bear the load applied on it and will fail. Its value can be found out by standard penetration test, plate load test or cone penetration test.

What is the differences between a cone crusher and spring cone crusher?
A cone crusher uses grease sealing to prevent the watering and draining system from being blocked and to avoid the defect of mixing water and oil. The spring safety system protects the unit against overload and keeps the crushing chamber from being damaged by foreign substances or iron pieces.
What does the shock cord do in a rocket?

What is the purpose of the cone on a speaker?
The cone on the speaker works as a membrane to vibrate and push the air to create sound waves. The pushing action comes from the electromagnetic forces at work when electrical signals come from a sound source when plugged in and into the transducer.
