The LAUDA iVisc System
Fully automatic, space-saving, mobile and easy to operate
The new LAUDA iVisc is a capillary viscometer for the automatic measurement and evaluation of kinematic viscosity in accordance with DIN 51562 and ASTM D445. Furthermore, it opens up the possibility of calculating polymer data, e.g. SV-, IV- and K-values and the dynamic viscosities of oils, lubricants and beverages.
The iVisc can be employed in any test laboratory where viscosity values have to be determined. Other wide-ranging application examples can be found in quality control in polymer manufacture, in compounding and in the manufacture of plastic prefabricated parts.
Application examples:
- Determining the viscosity number, intrinsic viscosity (average molar mass) and other parameters of technical polymers such as PA, PET, PBT, PE, PP and PVC in accordance with EN-ISO 1628, ISO 307 for the quality control of plastics
- Measuring absolute viscosities of engine oils and other lubricants in accordance with ASTM D445, viscosity index in accordance with ISO 2909 at 40 °C and 100 °C
