Cflow Extrusion Plastometer

Determination of Melt Mass Flow Rate (MFR) and Melt Volume Flow Rate (MVR)

Determination of MFR or MVR values is used for easy Goods Inwards quality control of raw materials and is specified in ISO 4440. 
 
This simple method is particularly useful for early identification of variations in molecular distribution in polyolefins. 

This simplifies production process optimization as there is less disruption due to material  variations. 

By skilful mixing of batches with different melt flow rates it is possible to achieve largely uniform raw material. 

Typical Products for this Application:

 

Cflow Extrusion Plastometer

The easy-to-use Cflow extrusion plastometers have been designed as a stand-alone instrument. They are specifically intended for MFR determination and are suitable for goods inwards checks.
 
 

Mflow Extrusion Plastometer

The basic versions of the Mflow extrusion plastometers are used to determine the melt mass flow rate (MFR). Use of the displacement transucer expands their function to include determination of melt volume flow rate (MVR) and automatic adaptive parameter configuration. Typical uses are in quality control and goods inwards.
