The standard version of the Mflow extrusion plastometers can be used to establish the melt mass flow rate (MFR). The plastometer comprises modular design; using the piston transducer expands the Mflow's capabilities to include determination of melt volume flow rate (MVR) as well as automatic adaptive parameter configuration. Common uses are in goods inwards checks and quality assurance.
Key Advantages and Features
Automatic, field-dependent parameterization reduces measurement errors and enhances test parameters
The pneumatic weight-lifting unit with pegging allows users to alter the test weights rapidly and easily. The test piston is also held in any required pre-heating position.
A piston displacement transducer is available for establishing the MVR
Mflow Extrusion Plastometer with Weight Selector
The Mflow weight-selector option integrates the benefits of pneumatic weight-lifting with the convenience of simple, reliable, and safe changing of test weights, guaranteeing secure weight-storage and an operator-friendly test sequence.
Mflow Extrusion Plastometer in all Models
The modular Mflow extrusion plastometer is used to define the volume flow rate (MVR) and melt flow rate (MFR).
Technical Overview
The standard version of the Mflow extrusion plastometer is engineered to perform MFR tests in compliance with Method A and can be expanded for MVR tests as per Method B. Tests to the following standards are possible: Methods A and B as per ISO 1133, ASTM D3364, ASTM D1238, and JIS K 7210.
