Melt Flow Index Tester
Measure the melt mass-flow rate (MFR) and melt volume-flow rate (MVR) of thermoplastic polymers and resins with exceptional precision using our advanced Melt Flow Index Tester (Model: VE-MFI-A-AC). Designed with a wide temperature range up to 400°C, micro-processor-based digital timing, and interchangeable test weights, this instrument provides critical rheological quality control data for plastic processing and polymer manufacturing industries.
Product Overview
Our Melt Flow Index (MFI) Tester is a specialized laboratory apparatus engineered to determine the extrusion rate of molten resins through a specified capillary die under controlled temperature and load conditions. Featuring high thermal accuracy within ±0.1°C and reliable weight configurations including standard 2.16 kg and 5 kg loads, the equipment ensures strict adherence to international testing standards. It serves as an indispensable tool for evaluating polymer molecular weight and flow characteristics prior to extrusion, injection molding, or blow molding.
