Melt Flow Indexer Tester
The Melt Flow Indexer is a NEW and AFFORDABLE tabletop instrument that tests the melt flow resistance (MFR) of a wide range of thermoplastics. The tester conforms to all National and International melt flow resistance standards, including BS EN ISO 1133 and ASTM D 1238. Any temperature within 248°F - 842°F (120°C - 450°C) can be accurately controlled.
Out-of-the-Box Operation
Testing melt flow resistance has never been so economical or easy to do! The Melt Flow Indexer is supplied complete with spare barrel and die, plus all the accessories and weights necessary for maintenance and operation. Nothing else to buy - just plug it in and start testing!
High Accuracy
The built-in microprocessor maintains temperature control to within ±0.4°F (0.2°C), with rapid ramp-up to set point. Extruded material is automatically cutoff by the built-in scraper mechanism at preset intervals, controllable to ±0.01 seconds.
Easy to Use
The clear multi-line LCD display and tactile-feedback membrane keypad allow fast, accurate input of test parameters and provide continuous display of setings during testing.
Features
· Auto Cut-Off feature
· Built-in microprocessor maintains temperature control to within ±0.4°F (±0.2°C), with rapid rampup to set point.
