New Product – Manual Advanced Melt Flow Indexer by Ray-Ran Test Equipment Ltd

 

 

Introducing the MFR200, Manual Advanced Melt Flow Indexer, Ray-Ran are thrilled to offer the new apparatus which comes with an auto cut-off device and a new touchscreen control panel. With a PT100 Platinum Resistance Thermometer to accurately control the temperature of the barrel, the maximum allowable temperature variation along the length of the cylinder liner is in accordance with ISO1133 International Test Standards.

 

The MFR series of Melt Flow Indexers are supplied as standard with a replaceable hardened steel cylinder liner which can be simply swapped if a replacement is needed or for Hastelloy (optional) if testing corrosive materials is a requirement. A Tungsten Carbide test die and hardened steel piston along with 2.16 kg test load and tooling ancillaries compliment the apparatus to get you testing straight out the box. 

 

The apparatus features a rotary “Auto Cut Device” feature for consistent cutting accuracy of the extrudate eliminating the need for manual cutting. 
 

 

For simplicity of use, the apparatus is fitted with an intuitive 4” colour touch screen panel and microprocessor interface so test parameters can easily be set.

 

Features include, temperature set point value (SV), actual temperature value (AV), number of cuts, cut time, auto MFR calculation and “ECO” mode. Simply weigh the cut samples and enter the weights as a mean or as individual cuts and let the microprocessor calculate the MFR value.
