Measuring Mixers

Determination of thermoplastics, thermosets, elastomers, ceramic molding compounds, fillers, pigments and much more plastic and plastifying materials.

Brabender® measuring mixers are interchangeable measuring heads which serve, connected to a Plasti-Corder®, lab-station or Plastograph®, for determination of thermoplastics, thermosets, elastomers, ceramic molding compounds, fillers, pigments and much more plastic and plastifying materials under praxis-oriented conditions, cost-effective, reliable and little expenditure of time and material.

• Easy handling and cleaning  through bipartite or tripartite mixer bowl
• Liquid heating/cooling or with electric  heating
• Precise and constant heating/cooling of the mixers through three independent heating zones
• Operating temperatures of up to 500°C with electric  heating
• Manifold  applications through quickly detachable interchangeable mixer blades
• Large program of additional equipment

User-optimized software under Windows©

The comfortable 32-bit software allows real multitasking. Several tests can be run and controlled on various instruments while texts or spreadsheets can be edited – all at a time from a single computer. Enter your test parameters from your computer keyboard, store them in MS Access database format together with the measuring data and results, and easily use them in other applications like word processing programs or spreadsheets.

Definition of reference curves with tolerance limits makes it easy to check already during the test whether a material meets the specifications for a certain application or not.

A powerful correlation program compares diagrams and results of up to 10 tests with each other. Test conditions and results are compared in tables and evaluated statistically for quickly accessing trends or irregularities.

Additional software packages enable programming of speed profiles, e.g. slow premixing and increasing or decreasing mixing speed during the test. This supplementary software can also evaluate individual diagrams. Optionally the melt temperature is also measured and recorded during the test.
