Enhanced Testing Features:
The MFR200 simplifies complex testing processes, allowing users to effortlessly measure polymers’ melt flow index (MFI). It employs an automated extrusion method where the polymer is heated and extruded through a precision-controlled die under specific conditions. The apparatus automatically cuts the extruded polymer, which is weighed to determine the flow rate over ten minutes.
Robust Construction and Optional Upgrades:
This model has a durable, hardened steel cylinder liner that is easily replaceable to accommodate different testing needs. For environments dealing with corrosive materials, an upgrade to a Hastelloy cylinder liner is available. The standard tungsten carbide die, hardened steel piston, and a 2.16 kg test load ensure comprehensive readiness for immediate testing.
Precision Controls and Software Integration:
The MFR200 features an intuitive 4-inch colour touchscreen for straightforward operation, integrated with a microprocessor that automates complex calculations, such as the MFI, directly on the device. The dual-zone heating system ensures precise temperature control along the barrel, adhering to international standards.
The indexer includes the latest edition of Techni-Test 2 software, which enhances data analysis with graphical and tabular presentations and easy export options to formats like CSV for use in applications like Microsoft Excel.
User-Friendly Design:
A notable feature is the rotary “Auto Cut Device”, which consistently cuts the extrudate precisely, eliminating the manual effort typically required. Additionally, the apparatus supports optional enhancements like a pneumatic weight loader to handle heavier test weights easily and simplifies the cleaning process with an integrated tool holder.
Comprehensive Documentation and Support:
Every MFR200 is supplied with a full suite of documentation, including a user manual, a traceable calibration certificate, and a CE declaration certificate. This ensures that all setup and operation processes are well-documented and comply with international standards.
