The compact Cflow extrusion plastometers were designed as stand-alone instruments for rapid inspection of the melt mass flow rates (MFR). They are mainly used for incoming goods inspections by plastics processing companies, where extrusion tests are performed sporadically.
The basic version of the Mflow extrusion plastometers can be used to determine melt mass flow rates (MFR). It features a modular design, and use of the piston displacement transducer expands the Mflow’s capabilities to include determination of melt volume flow rate (MVR), as well as automatic, field-dependent parameterization. These extrusion plastometers are typically used for quality assurance and incoming goods inspections.
The Aflow is noted for being highly automated: Whether simple cleaning and defined pre-compaction at the press of a button, or infinitely settable test loads, the Aflow extrusion plastometer adapts to your test tasks.
The Aflow was developed specifically for laboratories with high test volumes; this is reflected in its robust design and convenient operation. The instrument supports all established worldwide standards and procedures, including ISO 1133 and ASTM D1238.
