HAAKE RheoStress 600
What counts in
Rheometry...
VC-Motor
VC Motor, powerful ... dynamic ... and extremely fast
The proven VC motor of the RS300 has been further
improved and sets new standards with:
a 4 th generation diffusion air bearing
high dynamic response due to digital adaptive
control loops and an exemplary low inertia
(1.1·10-5 kgm 2 )
response times of 40 ms for shear rate
and strain jumps
a standard maximum torque of 200 mNm
a minimum torque of 0.1µNm, realised with
the new MSCplus (Micro Stress Control plus)
The VC motor allows the simulation of extreme rheological
processes – a rheologist’s dream comes true!
Software modules
Customize HAAKE RheoWin to your needs
HAAKE RheoWin can be adapted to
suit individual user requirements via
special modules:
snapshot for a quick characterization
of an unknown sample
RheoWizard ® ; the expert help
system for creating new jobs
Barcode control for workflow
optimization (GLP)
SAP interface for data exchange
automatic comparisons with
reference data / master curves
polymer software HAAKE RheoSoft
(WLF, Relaxation time spectra,
molecular weight distribution)
Tools for complying with the
FDA 21 CFR part 11 requirements

CD-Mode
True deformation control
The new Controlled Deformation mode is
available for rotational (strain-jump) as well
as oscillatory measurements. In oscillation
the desired deformation is attained at the
first oscillation period, without iterations,
in contrast to the AutoStrain functionality
of classical CS-rheometers. Fast rheological
processes, like chemical reactions, thermally
induced hardening, gel formation kinetics,
etc. can thus be recorded
continuously.
Data Recording
Recording data right from the start
Many visco-elastic samples e.g. polymers react to changes
in shear stress with a characteristic time delay. Conclusions
can be drawn from this with regard to the
microstructure of the sample, provided that data is
available over a wide range of time. With the 400 Hz
sampling rate of the HAAKE RheoStress 600, the first
data point is measured after 2.5 ms. As a result the
time dependent properties of visco-elastic substances
can be characterized continuously.
HAAKE RheoWin
Measuring, evaluation and data export via Drag-&-Drop
HAAKE RheoWin is a complete measuring and
evaluation software for all measuring modes. It
controls the HAAKE RheoStress 600 and handles
the measured data either graphically or as a table.
Some highlights are:
definition of measuring and evaluation sequences
(”Jobs”) using Drag-&-Drop
fully automated measurement and evaluation in
one job
broad selection of rheological evaluation methods
freely configurable ASCII data export
automatic intermediate saving of measured data
real multitasking; simultaneous measurements with
multiple rheometers
real 32-bit application for Windows ® 95/98/Me and
NT/2000/XP
highly configurable user managment system
12 operating languages available
Display/Control Unit
Monitoring data on-line even without a PC
The display/control unit of the HAAKE RheoStress 600 is
used for manual operation of the lift and the gap setting.
It is also used to set preselected shear rates and to intervene
in PC-controlled measurements. The colour display
monitors freely selectable rheological and instrument specific
data online. Data can be displayed numerically as well
as graphically. Complex measuring sequences are carried
out ”at the touch of a button”, without using a PC.
The display/control unit is part of the standard delivery of
the HAAKE RheoStress 600 High Performance and an
option for the HAAKE RheoStress 600.

Modularity
Trying out new ideas with the HAAKE
RheoStress 600... acting flexibly
The HAAKE RheoStress 600 is
designed for the creative rheologist,
who uses a rheometer for
dedicated research. The instrument
setup can be quickly adapted to
suit a wide range of requirements
due to its modular design.

HAAKE RheoStress 600
Normal Force
Rheometry not only in one direction
Forces acting perpendicular to the direction of
flow play an important role in many rheological
applications. With the HAAKE RheoStress 600,
the normal force can be used as a set parameter
as well as a measured variable.
The normal stress differences induced by
shearing a visco-elastic sample are measured
by the normal force sensor which is integrated
in the air-bearing, where it is shielded against
mechanical and thermal influences. The new
MFC (Micro Force Correction) extends the
measurable force range down to 0.01 N.
In the FCL mode (Force-Controlled-Loading)
samples are loaded under a pre-set normal
force in order to increase the reproducibility.
With the HAAKE RheoStress 600 you can
be sure that only the sample properties are
measured.
