• Gravimetric and volumetric method.
• Computerized by Melt Flow Index Software (Mini PC included in the supply).
• The Testing Software allows testing and determines the flow rate.
• Automatic sample cutting.
• PID temperature controller (holding ± 0.1ºC).
• Programmer of time and number of cutting cycles.
• Equipment prepared to work with corrosive materials such as PVC.
• The kit includes all working and cleaning tools, piston and standard nozzle.
• Standard temperature range up to +325 ºC (*) with resolution of ± 0.1ºC.
• Digital stopwatch with a range of up to 9999 seconds.
• 7 Chromed and polished weights included in the standard supply: 1.2 Kg – 2.16 Kg – 3.8 Kg – – 5 Kg – 5 Kg – 6.6 and 10 Kg (The weight of 21.6 kg is achieved by combining the weights of 5kg, 6.6kg and 10kg).
• The placement of the weights on the piston is manual.
• RS-232 output interface with converter to USB.
• To calculate the Melt Index in the MFI-500/AP model using the Gravimetric method, it is necessary to weigh the extruded material with a resolution of 0.001 g, therefore we recommend using a precision balance.
• CE marked.

Processing of thermoplastic raw materials:

• polyethylene (PE), polypropylene (PP), polybutylene (PB), polystyrene (PS), polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA),polyvinyl chloride (PVC), polyethylene terephthalate (PET), Teflon (or polytetrafluoroethylene, PTFE), nylon (polyamide type).
• Plastic pipes – textile fibers – joints – containers – ropes, packaging – furniture – auto parts – aeronautics – toys – medical prosthetics – construction.
