VICAT-HDT Softening Test Apparatus
Description
Laboratory test equipment for the determination of the softening point VICAT and the bending temperature HDT in thermoplastic materials.
- Bathroom interior in stainless steel.
- The design of the interior volume is studied in such a way as to ensure a perfect thermal exchange, both for heating and cooling.
- Temperature control by PID and Pt-100 sensor.
- Working temperature: from ambient to +250 ºC.
- Resolution: +/- 0.1ºC.
- Accuracy: +/- 0.2ºC.
- Heating rate: 120ºC / hour and 50ºC / hour (configurable).
- Equipped with 3 Pt100 temperature probes (one for each test station).
- Test stations equipped with linear displacement sensors, with a range of 10 and a resolution of ± 0.01 mm.
- Set of 16 weights for each test station included in supply: 2 of 5 g, 2 of 10 g, 2 of 15 g, 1 of 25 g, 1 of 50 g, 1 of 100 g, 2 of 200 g, 1 of 500 g, 1 x 750 g, 1 x 845 g, and 2 x 2000 g (16 weights per station x 3 = 48 weights total).
- Computerized with vicat-hdt testing software.
- RS-232 output interface with converter to USB.
- CE marked.
- Automobile panels.
- Tubes and plastic pipes.
- Automotive dashboards.
