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.

Microtrac MRB’s NANOTRAC Wave II / Q / Zeta is a highly flexible Dynamic Light Scattering (DLS) analyzer which provides information on particle size, zeta potential, concentration, and molecular weight. It allows faster measurements with reliable technology, higher precision, and better accuracy. All of this combined into a compact DLS analyzer with a revolutionary fixed optical probe.

Moisture analysers are a great substitute to traditional oven drying methods and are a user-friendly alternative to wet chemistry analysers. OHAUS moisture analysers utilise a halogen or infrared heating element to rapidly dry the sample resulting in a quick and accurate result. These rapid tests can be performed on the production floor or the lab. Browse our range of models below for more detailed product information and features.

Designed to meet rigorous testing standards for orally inhaled and nasal drug products (OINDPs), SprayVIEW® Measurement Systems are the industry standard for measuring and analyzing the spray pattern and plume geometry produced by spray and aerosol generating devices.

These systems have been validated and are being used in development and production environments at leading pharmaceutical companies, CDO/CMO/CROs, device manufacturers, and regulatory agencies around the world.

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 Method A tester is primarily used to measure the apparent density of fine granules that can be poured readily through a “V” shaped funnel, the material under test is allowed to flow into a cylindrical cup with a known volume of 100cm³.
