Instrument Configuration
Working in the CeastVIEW platform, the VisualMELT
software is designed to control all the functions of the
Modular Melt Flow Family Fig. 1 , including the new
multiweight tester (model 7027.000). From a library of
international standards it is possible to select any test
parameter Fig. 2 ; it is also possible to customise the
test parameter in accordance with the customer needs.
In fact, due to the new firmware the operator can choose:
• the test starting point and the test ending point, defined
by piston position or elapsed time
• the step type, defined by length or elapsed time.
Different criteria are available in the parameters definition
for data selection and discarding in automatic or manual
mode.
Graphs and tables can be easily stored and recalled
Fig. 3, 4, 5 . Test results include: Mass- and Volume- MFR,
values and graph of single steps and whole test, test time,
statistical data, velocity and variance, thermal stability,
shear sensitivity, shear rate, shear stress and viscosity.
When working with a multi-weight tester, it is possible to
set up and control single-weight and multi-weigh tests, to
select the order and number of weights to be applied, to
manage all the optional equipment including the load cell
for compaction and the automatic cutting device.
The raw data received from the instrument are stored
and further elaborations are allowed.
Up to 40 data points can be acquired during one test
(this corresponds to 0.75 mm steps over a 30 mm
measuring length).
