At the same time,
melt flow rate is a measure of the ability of the material's melt to flow under pressure. Melt flow rate is inversely proportional to viscosity of the melt at the conditions of the test, though it should be borne in mind that the viscosity for any such material depends on the applied force.
Both Melt flow rate and Melt volume rate can be determined with Quali Fi 6000 Series through a calibrated die under the effect of a pre-determined force, at constant temperature and for the total time of 10 minutes. The instrument is equipped with special features like movable oven for easy cleaning and inspection; Automatic application of selected load; Piston displacement monitored by encoder; Software for result acquisition, storing and exporting whenever necessary
The instrument with built in weights has the provision to select the weight automatically by a simple touch of the operator on the screen. In case of multi weight testing the choice can be for incremental or decremental testing. No manual weight handling is required.
The instrument is with a wide color touch screen for a simple and fast input of the test parameter, visualization of test execution and final results. The results can be connected to a PC through a RS232 port for direct acquisition of the test parameters and test results which can be saved or exported with the help of the software.
