Description and Specification for Lab Tenders
Melt Flow Index.
Melt Flow Index Apparatus for plastic measures the melt flow index of
plastic material. The system consists of a heated extruder tube, an
interchangeable jet through which the material under test is extruded,
and a piston with dead weights to apply the specified pressure on the
material inside the extruder tube. The extruder tube is made from carbon
steel and is heated by means of a Bend Heater, which surrounds its
outer circumference. A PID controller is provided to indicate &
control the temperature of the tube.
