We understand that laboratories are reluctant to convert to the tried and proven specifications of a Moving Die Rheometer scenario, but need to gain the latest measurement technology.

Prescott Instruments have fashioned a prefect synergy of traditional principles and the latest modern technologies to build our Oscillating Disc Rheometer (ODR). Our design aims to revolutionise a classic, and provide a seamless transition when upgrading your laboratory equipment. The Rheoline ODR is equipped with high precision micro production die and rotor assembly.

Using a microprocessor based PID control system, the temperatures of the dies are accurately maintained throughout the testing process. The test material sample is placed on the rotor and is secured in placed by pressure controlled platens.

The instrument is easy to maintain, and designed for ease of access. The oscillati on amplitude can be mechanically adjusted with the opti ons of 1°, 3° and 5°.

The test results are performed and displayed as plotted curves on a graph. The information can be printed out as and when required or stored on the computer’s hard disc for future reference. In addition the ODR can be interfaced with Quality Analyst, an internationally recognised SPC package to generate control charts, and carry out full statistical analysis of test data, or any external quality control package
