Constant Volume Sample Cutter for Mooney Viscometer
Constant Volume Sample Cutter for Mooney Viscometer ensure consistent specimen volume for Mooney viscosity tests enhances repeatability and eliminates the need for manual preparation.
The Instruments cutter enables fast, precise specimen preparation with a standardized volume while also creating the central hole for rotor insertion.
Its updated design features an open front, allowing easy placement and cutting of raw compound pieces or strips, even in larger sizes.
For safety, the pneumatically activated front screen lowers automatically before cutting begins, meeting CE safety standards.
The cutting system uses a double-action piston to press the compound to the required thickness before activating the die, ensuring accurate specimen volume even for high-hardness compounds.
This machine eliminates the need for cutting planes, making specimen extraction effortless.
The produced specimens meet ISO 289 and ASTM D1646 standards, with an adjustable volume range of 12 to 13 cm³. The default setting is 12.5 cm³, but it can be adjusted from 2 to 15 cm³ as needed.
Sample Volume for Mooney Viscometer
According to ASTM D1646, a test specimen consists of two pieces with a combined volume of 25 cm³, ensuring complete cavity filling. This corresponds to approximately 1.45 times the small rotor’s volume and 1.67 times the large rotor’s volume.
The standard Volumetric Cutter setup produces Mooney test samples with a volume of 12.5 cm³. Upon request, the machine can be configured to produce samples with volumes between 12 and 13 cm³.
Puncher for Hole for Mooney Sample
An integrated puncher creates the central hole in the lower sample for Mooney viscosity testing.
The pneumatically activated safety panel ensures compliance with CE safety standards.
Safety devices
