Melt Flow Indexers
Allometrics is a leading ISO 17025 accredited laboratory in the field of Melt Flow Indexers.
Although we work alongside clients from many industries, our capabilities in the calibration and certification of Melt Flow Indexers primarily serve the manufacturing, consumer products, healthcare, and automotive industries.
The Importance of Melt Flow Indexers (MFI)
Melt Flow Indexers are advanced instruments utilized to measure a variety of melt characteristics of thermoplastic polymers, including Melt Volume Rate, Melt Viscosity, Melt Density, Shear, and Stress Rates.
Understanding melt flow is crucial for plastic manufacturers, processors, and converters, as it dictates the temperatures and pressures necessary to produce consistent quality products.
These advanced instruments measure how many grams of a polymer is flowing through the surface. This information is a critical factor in polymer suitability in injection molding processes. Melt Flow Indexers measure how easily different polymer materials flow when melted and subjected to pressure.
Allometrics Melt Flow Indexers Testing and Calibration Capabilities
At Allometrics, we are accredited to perform calibration services that meet the requirements of both ISO 1133 and ATSM D1238 standards.
Our experts bring decades of cumulative experience in the field.
Melt Flow Indexers are subject to drift as any other measurement device. For this reason, preventive maintenance and regular calibration are necessary to eliminate any uncertainty and guarantee the quality of your products.
If you notice your melt flow indexer results are returning values that differ from historical or expected values, it’s time to schedule a calibration.
As part of our testing and calibration sessions, we examine and adjust all dimensional and thermal aspects of your Melt Flow Indexer in accordance with ASTM and ISO standards. One crucial feature of all our calibration capabilities is ensuring your instrument’s calibration is traceable to national and international standards.
Allometrics services all major Melt Flow Indexers manufacturers, including:
- Dynisco
- Tinius Olsen
- Ceast/Instron*
- Gottfert*
