MonTech Rheometer test die geometries

MonTech quick change test dies for Rheometers - are waiting your testing challenge! Offering the largest test dies selection in the market available test die geometries include 8 types according to different international and industry standards as well as over 30 application specific die designs. This allows the combination of dies in many different test setups such as double cone, plate-cone and plate-plate configurations with traditional closed or semi-open boundary. Along with the automatic test die identification and quick change system the system provides users with highest testing flexibility for almost any kind of viscoelastic materials and applications. Readily available die types cover: Cruciform designs with 4 or 5 sectional grooves Cruciformless types Ungrooved, polished dies Flat dies Each die type is additionally available in recessed and shallow designs, with specially coated surfaces, with defined surface roughness. Furthermore die types can be customized to user specific application, material and test requirements - even for the most aggressive test materials or highest temperature ranges. All MonTech test dies have however on thing in common: Their PRECISION - ensuring superior and always reliable test results. Every part of our test die assemblies is meticulously manufactured, inspected and assembled for highest PERFORMANCE. Specific design advantages such as the corrosion free materials, specially shaped die notches and grooves without corner radius and a seamless transition from the die surface into the groove facilitate easy cleaning and long term DURABILITY. MonTech testing technology shapes the world - application examples: Test dies with reduced slippage for LAOS testing Specially grooved test dies minimize slippage during LAOS measurements so that testing can truly be considered slippage free. The dies - in conjunction with MonTechs’ unique cavity pressure measurement and control ensure consistent processability and after ure data as measurement error from traditional RPA system are eliminated - essential for modern tire development! Wall-Slip measurements With special polished, ungrooved dies the typically considered slip free RPA measurement can be converted into a pressurized rotational Rheometer to measure surface slippage, transient and steady shear at process relevant shear rates (up to 750sec -1 ) closely correlating to extrusion and other critical high shear manufacturing processes. Heat build up and thermal conductivity Test dies with recessed grooves allow to determine heat build up on final compound after cure. Special subroutines with heating and cooling turned off, utilizing Large Oscillatory Strains or constant shear rates at a defined rotation speed allows generates a heat build up which can be measure d with the lower die temperature sensor. Heat dissipation to the upper die in addition allows to correlate to the thermal conductivity. Composite materials, Resins and Prepregs Modern aircraft and electric car manufacturing would not be possible without them. Manufacturing integrated testing ensures process consistency and component safety. Thermoplastic elastomers (TPEs) The handle of your bike, the pen in your fingers, the mat in your car, the toy of your kid - all of them only feel so nice because these materials have been precisely engineered - with the help of MonTech testing technology. Characterisation of gel time of thermosets FMC, SMC, BMC, Bakelite, phenolic or exopy resins - we have the right solution for your materials and processes! Thermoplastics Our testing technology speeds up the digital transformation: Closed loop process rheological control of XLPE materials accelerates manufacturing of e.g. sub-sea fiberoptic cables.
