Instron Capillary Rheometers
Accurately determining the rheological properties of polymer samples over a broad range of shear rates and testing settings, the Instron® capillary rheometer systems of the CEAST SmartRHEO Series are ideal for research and for enhanced quality control of thermoplastic products.The CEAST SmartRHEO Series is a popular product line for capillary rheometry because it provides the testing industry with compact, rigid, dependable, and technologically sophisticated instruments.
Experience the power of Twin Bore configuration - the ultimate solution for conducting two simultaneous and independent rheological tests. With direct comparison of the behavior of two different samples or two lots of the same material, you can now achieve unparalleled accuracy and efficiency in your testing process. Unlock endless testing possibilities with their wide range of accessories, which allow for fundamental property determination like Melt Strength, Die Swell, and PVT behavior, making it possible to simulate processes such as injection molding, extrusion, blow molding, and film blowing.
Main Features:
- Rigid "H" frame for high strength and stiffness
- Brushless servomotor for accurate piston movement
- Accurate barrel temperature control with 3 heating zones and multiple PT100 sensors, ensuring minimum delay in reaching the test temperature and rapid recovery after sample loading
- Twin Bore barrel configuration allows two simultaneous and independent rheological tests, increasing time saving
- Crosshead with independent load cell on each piston provides superior accuracy, increasing the repeatibility and reability of test results
- Two interchangable and indepenent barrel-mounted pressure transducers allowing accurate data acquisition
- Test data are collected, managed, and elaborated by a dedicated software. Additional modules provide deeper rheological data analysis.
- Wide selection of optional devices and capillary dies are ideal for multiple testing applications within a single machine
