No. 520 Melt Flow Rater (Fully-automated Melt Flow Indexer)

Description

The Melt Flow Rater is designed for measuring of the Melt Flow Rate (MFR) and Melt Volume Rate (MVR) conforms to ISO 1133 and ASTM D1238 in fully automated mode.

This machine follows a sequential operation from the loading of materials, testing, data processing to the cleaning of barrel and performing the next test all on its own.

This tremendously reduces the workload of the user who can go on to perform other job functions after loading in the samples.
