Rheology at its smartest! Flexible, compatible, systematic.
Depending on the design variant, our mi2 can be used to run measurements in accordance with the following standards:
- ASTM D1238
- ISO 1133
- ASTM D3364
Melt Flow Indexer mi2
The mi2 is more operator friendly than the mi1 thanks to its automatic weight lifting device. This makes it possible to start the measurement automatically after the melting time and to lift the weights at the touch of a button and move them to the start position once the measurement has been completed.
Good to know
Due to the modular design, it is possible to increasingly automate the melt index measurement. The test devices can be used as a stand-alone device or with an adjacent PC to manage the test results.

for even more functionality
CUSTOMIZED TO YOUR REQUIREMENTS
Our modular add-ons also offer an extended option for characterizing materials.
Our miCONNECT software is a browser-based platform for workstation-independent management and analysis of measurement data, which can be used without installation.

The residual moisture has a considerable influence on the measurement result for certain test materials. Therefore, it is recommended to dry test materials before a IV measurement and to determine the residual moisture.

Directly connected laboratory scale for determination of the melt density.
