The present disclosure relates to devices and methods for determining the density of insulation (e.g., in a cavity). For example, one aspect of the disclosure is a device that includes a probe, an actuator, a sensor, and a control system. The control system is configured to cause the actuator to oscillate the probe. The sensor is configured to generate a signal that represents the density of insulation. Another aspect of the disclosure relates to a method for determining the density of insulation. The method includes placing a probe into contact with the insulation, causing, via an actuator, the probe to oscillate while in contact with the insulation, and generating, via a sensor, a signal that represents the density of insulation.

Devices and methods for determining the density of insulation

An abrasive article including a body including abrasive particles contained within a bond material, a first major surface, a second major surface, and a side surface extending between the first major surface and second major surface, and a coating overlying at least a portion of one of the first major surface or the second major surface. In an embodiment, the coating comprises at least one element selected from the group of chromium, nickel, carbon, nitrogen, tungsten, sulfur, molybdenum, iron, zinc, silicon, titanium, aluminum, zirconium, magnesium, zinc, boron, cobalt, calcium, or any combination thereof. In another embodiment, the coating comprises a cermet, a ceramic, or a combination thereof.
