Melt Flow Tester Basic
For Accurately Measuring the Melt Flow Rate of a Wide Range of Thermoplastics
For measuring the rate of extrusion of molten thermoplastics through a die. Results used to calculate the breaking stretch ratio. Ideal for evaluation of incoming raw materials & setting the optimum processing parameters. Test results expressed in grams/10 min.
Electrically heated barrel has two heating areas, with PID-temperature regulator by use of 2 PT 100 thermo-resistors.
