An aluminum stepwedge penetrometer was exposed simultaneously with each radiograph for use as a standard of reference. |
Fruit firmness, as determined by penetrometer, measures the force required to press a blunt-ended probe into the tissue. |
The penetrometer value measures the energy required to bury a ball in sand. |
