Model : MFI - DX

MFI Testing Machine Supplier in Sri Lanka

A Melt Flow Index (MFI) Tester measures the rate at which a thermoplastic polymer melts and flows under specified heat and pressure. The result, expressed in grams per 10 minutes, helps determine the viscosity and processability of plastics. It is widely used in polymer manufacturing and quality control to ensure batch consistency and suitability for molding or extrusion.

The Presto Melt Flow Index Tester is your go-to solution to evaluate the flow properties of molten plastics or resins. This tester is designed to measure the Melt Flow Index of thermoplastic materials and, hence, determines the rate of flow in grams per ten minutes of molten resins through a specific jet length and diameter.

Equipped with a microcontroller-based PID temperature controller, the MFI tester offers precise temperature control from ambient to 400°C. With a resolution of 0.1°C and an accuracy of ± 0.1°C, you can rely on its temperature readings for accurate results.

This instrument has a digital presettable timer with the range of up to 59 minutes and 59 seconds with a buzzer output. Automatic sample cutting provision for accuracy and smooth operation.

Melt Flow Index (MFI) measures how easily a plastic material flows when melted. It's a critical test for manufacturers working with thermoplastics, as it gives insight into how a material will behave during processing. Using a melt flow index tester or MFI machine helps ensure consistent product quality and performance.

A melt flow index tester (also called a melt flow indexer or MFI tester) is used to calculate the flow rate of molten plastic through a die under specific conditions. This test helps determine the material's viscosity and processability. These testers are essential in plastic manufacturing, quality control labs, and R&D departments.

A melt flow index equipment is primarily used for thermoplastic materials like polyethylene, polypropylene, polystyrene, and ABS. It helps compare different grades of plastic and choose the right one for a specific application.

Absolutely! Whether you're a large manufacturing unit or a small testing lab, there’s an MFI testing machine suited to your needs. Compact and table-top models make it easier for smaller facilities to conduct MFI tests without compromising on accuracy.

The melt flow indexer price can vary depending on its features, level of automation, and the brand you choose. For accurate and up-to-date pricing, it’s best to contact a trusted MFI machine or melt flow index tester manufacturer directly and request a customized quote based on your specific needs.

Melt Flow Index Tester - NEO 2.0

Sri Lanka's plastic and polymer industry is heavily dependent on good-quality materials. The absence of a melt flow index instrument does not allow for consistency, flowability, or good-quality raw materials coming into the manufacturer's production floor. Inconsistencies in melt flow often lead to defective products, wasted materials, and inefficiencies in production. The result will be poor product performance, loss of customer satisfaction, and a competitive advantage globally.
