Automated polymer melt flow rate measurement system

In polymer production, maintaining consistent product quality and minimizing material wastage are critical challenges. Accurate and real-time measurement of melt flow rate, film purity, and transparency play crucial roles in ensuring specifications are consistently met.

Real-time monitoring and quality control for polymer production

The Auto-Grader by Brabender offers a continuous and automated method to determine the melt flow rate, film purity, and transparency within seconds during polymer production. This system operates fully automatically to adapt to different polymers, storing all relevant data in a database. When production switches to a new charge, the Auto-Grader precisely identifies when the product achieves the necessary specifications, reducing the volume of out-of-specification material. Furthermore, the system can be extended to provide additional online measurements, such as color, turbidity, density, and NIR, ensuring comprehensive quality control. All data can be transmitted to a process control system for integrated management.

Benefits

  • Continuous real-time measurement
  • Minimizes out-of-specification material waste
  • Automatic adaptation to varied polymers
  • Expandable with additional measurement capabilities
  • Data integration with process control systems
