The Rheograph 25, 75 and 120 with CAN-bus electronics for a higher degree of automation and thereby user friendliness comes with a color touch-screen monitor. Each one is a leader in its class regarding their respective technical specifications. High speeds are available for extreme large shear rate range testing. Coupled with a high force rating and our unique CAN bus Plug & Play pressure measurement system, measurement curves over wide ranges can be taken in one run and with one setup. This unique system ensures that the pressure transducers param-eters are now automatically transferred to the software. Most extraordinary, with GOETTFERT’s Adaptive Pressure Signal Processor, readings of only 0.005%
of full range become useful. Combined with our software LabRheo, based on “Microsoft .NET FrameworkTM” real time monitoring of the test shows how pressures over the full range can now be used for the very first time and offers all evaluation tools bundled in one software with a variety of output choices. These instruments are dynamic like no other, a compelling technical argument in itself, but with unique options and crafted to perfection the performance leap is undeniable.
GOETTFERT’s line of multi functional, high pressure capillary rheometers with a wide variety of barrel configurations.

Shark Skin Analysis
Thermal Conductivity measurement
Rheograph Major options in more detail
Flow-instabilities such as shark skin have long been observed, but difficult to measure. Common pressure or force transducers (typical 10 Hz max.) cannot pick up the slight pressure spikes caused by the instability. In cooperation with Professor M. Wilhelm (Institute of Applied Chemistry and Polymer Chemistry in Karlsruhe, Germany), a revolu-tionary sensory device was developed. Using a slit die and high frequency sensors with up to 20 kHz sampling rate, the smallest pressure peaks can be measured and analyzed. Results are evaluated in our special software and used to optimize extrusion, film and coating processes.
• Measurement of heat conductivity• Temperature range up to 450°C, pressure up to 1000 bar• Developed according to ASTM D5930• Test probe with integrated heater element and temperature sensor• No mechanical changeover required• Process simulation and optimization of injection molding cycle times
• Measurement according to ISO 17744• Determination of characteristics Pressure, Volume and Temperature• Measurements isobar and isotherm• Presentation of a PVT diagram• Variable test sample volume• Easy handling with quick die locking system• Optimizing of the flow and shrinkage properties during production process

Haul-Off melt strength measure-ment
Rheotens exten-sional viscosity measurement
Counter Pressure Chamber to measure pressure dependant viscosity
Laser Die Swell measurement
• Measurement of melt strength, especially for materials used in fiber spinning• Standard variable speed 0 - 600 m/min, with the high speed system 0-2000 m/min• Linear or exponential acceleration• Force measurement range 0 - 2 N, resolution 0.001 N
• Measurement of melt extensional viscosity (Model Wagner), especially for materials used in blown film and forms, spinning and coating• Variable speed 0 - 190 cm/s• Linear or exponential acceleration• Force measurement range 0 - 2 N, resolution 0.001 N• Automated force calibration
Process conditions in production of plastics and rubber (such as injection molding, extru-sion with long deformation paths, pump flow, etc) often occur under high pressures. Here, viscosity often shows its pressure depen-dency. The new Counter Pressure Chamber can be adjusted to simulate different pressure drops, thereby measuring the viscosity close to process conditions.• Measurement of pressure coefficient• Measurement of wall slip’s critical shear rate• Max. Pressure (Pm) 120 MPa
• Dynamic and static measurement• Analysis of swell profile (Basell Method)• Height adjustable mount• Standard resolution with 7 µm (micrometer) or with the high resolution system 0.1 µm• Melt cutting system
