Description/Features:
- Quick Applications
- Advantages & Features
- Melt Flow Index is a compact instrument for rapid checking of the melt mass flow rate of plastics as per Method .
- It is primarily designed for plastics processors with a less frequent need for extrusion tests and no requirement for connection to a PC.
- Melt Flow Index is intended for MFR tests to Method A. Tests can be performed by the following standards:
- Method A&B as per ISO 1133, ASTM D1238.
- Live Temperature in the extrusion barrel is indicated on an LED display with the temperature sensor mounted on the barrel.
- The instrument can quickly be checked using the test granulate.
- Temperature control of the heating elements, heating chamber, and barrel are all perfectly coordinated. The temperature is generated at the location where it is utilized, ensuring excellent temperature distribution over the whole barrel height from the outset
- Simplified cleaning, with rapid expulsion of residual specimen material. – The orifice is located on the underside of the extrusion barrel. Removing the orifice from the barrel from the upwards direction, allowing it to be removed easily. – Expelling the die plus residual material after the test is similarly fast and easy. The barrel is now accessible throughout, simplifying cleaning.
- Equipment is calibrated for temperature mass, Orifice & barrel inner diameter.
- A comprehensive accessory range including automatic or manual extrudate cutter, separating pane, and die plug is optionally available
