Modular torque rheometer for plastics and plastifiable substances
In the polymer and materials science industries, determining the processability and material characteristics of diverse plastics and plastifiables is crucial. Challenges often include variations in material composition and the need for precise control over processing parameters.
Analyze material characteristics accurately
The Brabender MetaStation is a modular torque rheometer designed to measure the processability and material properties of plastics and plastifiable substances. Its smart drive and control system allows for deep process insights, operating between 0.2 to 400 min-1 with a maximum torque of 500 Nm. This modular setup includes attachments like single- and twin-screw extruders, making it suitable for both batch and continuous processing. MetaBridge software ensures easy data management and compliance with ASTM standards. Additionally, the instrument’s compatibility with various mixer sizes and blade geometries allows for flexible adaptation to different testing requirements, making it indispensable for PVC, rubber, and thermoset testing.
