Automated Melt Flow Index Tester / Semi Auto Melt Indexer | 521-4A
Toyo Seiki · Melt Flow Index (MFR, MVR) / Melt Viscosity
The Semi Auto Melt Flow Indexer is designed for measuring of the MFR (melt mass-flow rate) and MVR (melt volume-flow rate) according to ISO 1133 and ASTM D1238 with semi-automated functions such as loading test weight, residue purging and assisted cylinder cleaning to reduce the burden during operation, ensure operation safety and shortening work time.
