Our semi-automatic melt index tester with fix installed measuring weights
Melt flow indexer MI-3
The MI-3 plastometer defines new standards in melt index testing and impresses with its intelligent, user-friendly design. The permanently integrated, fully equipped weight magazine with electric weight lift enables convenient and safe handling. Weight selection is precise and effortless via a selection lever.
Due to the high-precision displacement sensor, even very low or very high MFR/MVR-values can be recorded with high precision. The external piston guidance on the guide rod of the test weight ensures precise and repeatable measurements - even very sticky materials. The test chamber with exchangeable test barrels can be swivelled out for easy filling and cleaning.
Good to know
In addition to the standardized MFR and MVR measurements according to ASTM and ISO, the MI-3 offers a variety of add-ons that create real added value for materials testing. Trust in proven GÖTTFERT quality for maximum precision in material analysis.

for even more functionality
CUSTOMIZED TO YOUR REQUIREMENTS
Our modular add-ons also offer an extended option for characterizing materials.
Our miCONNECT software is a browser-based platform for workstation-independent management and analysis of measurement data, which can be used without installation.
The residual moisture has a considerable influence on the measurement result for certain test materials. Therefore, it is recommended to dry test materials before a IV measurement and to determine the residual moisture.
Directly connected laboratory scale for determination of the melt density.
The measuring head is mounted below the die. The measurement can be carried out parallel to a viscosity measurement.
