Automated imaging for advanced particle characterization

Morphological imaging is fast becoming an essential technology in the laboratory toolkit for particle characterization.

The Crush Test is designed as a robust, easy to use instrument. Exactly what you need when performing crush tests. The Crush Tester is suitable for a wide variety of samples, including corrugated board, tubes, paper and plastics. The special sample holders extend the instrument’s possibilities. The accuracy is achieved with a precision load cell, which is even accurate at low force values.

Small and Easy to Handle. The PGX+ measures contact angle (dynamic and static), surface tension, and surface energy. The PGX+ makes a drop in µl according to the size that is set. The drop is automatically released and 80 images per second are made. The instrument is used for paper & board, solar cell panels, windshields, metal cylinders and similar surfaces. For most tests deionized water is used, however using other liquids is also possible. Contact us if you want to use any other liquids.

Test Results. During testing the instrument is connected to the special PC software. The software gives you an easy overview of the possible tests. During the test the data transferred to the computer. The pictures taken and the results can be stored and analyzed. Thanks to the direct feedback, adjustments to improve the results can easily be made.

The 6MBA is the basic model offered within the Ray-Ran Range of Melt Flow Indexers. The manually operated test procedure is very simple to undertake. Molten Polymer is extruded through a closely controlled orifice (die) from the apparatus using pre set conditions of temperature and pressure produced by a dead weight system. The extruded polymer is cut off manually and is then weighed. Using the time interval to extrude the polymer its flow rate over 10 minutes can easily be determined, thus giving the Melt Flow Index (MFI) or Melt Mass Flow Rate (MFR) in g/10 min. By conducting a simple Density Test at test temperature on the same material using the same pre set conditions and a known piston travel distance the Melt Volume Rate (MVR) can also be determined.

Bulk density apparatus is testing equipment used to measure the bulk density property of powder, granules and other “divided” solids, especially used in reference to mineral components (soil, gravel, sand), chemical substances, (pharmaceutical), plastics like polyethylene (hdpe or mdpe) pvc, polystyrene etc, or foodstuff and any other masses of granular or particulate matter. 

The 7000 water vapor analyzer range utilises the sensitive and stable P2O5 sensor for absolute moisture measurement. These water vapor analyzers offer a wide measurement range of 0.002-1000 g/m²/day and precision temperature, humidity and flow control. Providing accurate and repeatable results for research and development testing of water transmission rate (wvtr) in both current and newly formulated packaging film materials and fast testing for Quality Control.

The TA Instruments RS-DSC (Rapid Screening Differential Scanning Calorimeter) is an advanced thermal analysis instrument designed for high-throughput thermal stability testing in biologic drug development. It offers precise and efficient measurement of biomolecule stability, enabling researchers to ensure product quality and accelerate development timelines. Tailored for high-concentration biologic formulations, it addresses the specific needs of antibody drugs and engineered proteins.

Microprocessor control and operator-friendly software makes the 17-76 simple to operate. A new Servo motor design provides closed loop feedback for accurate and repeatable position control.  Ergonomic control layout maximizes the testing sequence while minimizing sample testing errors resulting in incorrect data.  The instrument meets or exceeds all international testing standards for accuracy, precision, and parallelism.
