Melt Flow Indexer Tester 46-01-00

MELT FLOW INDEXER WITH AUTO CUT-OFF FEATURE Out-of-the-Box Operation

Testing melt flow resistance has never been so economical or easy to do! The Melt Flow Indexer is supplied complete with spare barrel and die, plus all the accessories and weights necessary for maintenance and operation. Nothing else to buy—just plug it in and start testing! TMI’s Melt Flow Indexer is a NEW and AFFORDABLE tabletop instrument that tests the melt flow resis- tance (MFR) of a wide range of thermoplastics. The tester conforms to all National and International melt flow resistance standards, including BS EN ISO 1133 and ASTM D1238. Any temperature within 120°C-450°C (248°F-842°F) can be accurately controlled.

Features R&D Quality at QA Prices

• Built-in microprocessor maintains temperature control to within ±0.2ºC (±0.4ºF), with rapid ramp-up to set point. • Temperature fluctuation is ±1% of set temperature. • Extruded material automatically cut-off by built-in scraper mechanism at preset intervals, controllable to ±0.01 seconds. • Clear multi-line LCD display and tactile-feedback membrane keypad allow fast, accurate input of test parameters and provide continuous display of settings during testing. The user-friendly Melt Flow Indexer combines the high accuracy and precision essential for quality control and R&D.
