Fann manufactures a variety of instruments to test the viscosity of a drilling fluid or mud.
Drilling fluid is subjected to a period of shear and allowed to more fully develop its rheological and filtration properties in an aging cell.
Drilling fluids are mixed or sheared for the appropriate time to achieve a homogenous mixture and are then set aside to "age"
