Technical Parameters

Advantages

(1) Accurate vulcanization measurement: Determines scorch time, positive cure time, vulcanization index, and torque with high precision.

(2) Supports formula optimization: Provides reliable data for rubber compound development.

(3) Standard compliant: Meets ASTM, ISO, and GB/T international and national standards.

(4) User-friendly operation: Simple control interface for temperature and time settings.

(5) Stable and durable: Designed for long-term use in laboratory and production environments.

Test Procedure

(1) Connect the power supply and compressed air source.

(2) Set the desired test temperature and curing time on the control panel.

(3) Load the rubber sample into the non-rotor rheometer cavity.

(4) Start the test; the swing mechanism will apply torque to the sample.

(5) Monitor the displayed data: scorch time, positive cure time, vulcanization index, and maximum/minimum torque.

(6) Stop the test after the set time, remove the sample, and record the results.

Maintenance Information

(1) Keep the instrument clean; remove rubber residues after each test.

(2) Periodically inspect the swing mechanism and torque sensor for wear or damage.

(3) Check temperature calibration regularly to ensure accurate measurements.

(4) Maintain pneumatic components, ensuring air lines and valves are free of leaks.

(5) Store in a dry, non-corrosive environment when not in use.
