Working principle
The viscosity is captured in the Visco-P measuring module. The measurement results are recorded continuously and in real time on an industrial PC with touch screen and visualized accordingly. In addition to the viscosity, the MFR or IV value of the real melt can be read at any time. Trend evaluations and reporting tools allow recording of the measurement results with statistical evaluation. In addition to the continuous
viscosity reading, the measuring module provides excellent melt and temperature homogenization. This allows surface quality and thickness tolerances of the extrudate to be improved and, in many cases, line throughput to be increased. Visco-P is used in many applications, for example in PET extrusion and in the processing of melts loaded with blowing fluids.
