Elastomer and rubber testing instruments are used for quality control, research as well as product development. It covers a wide range of applications and objectives including the evaluation of compounds and material properties. These properties can be used to predict the strength and performance in the final product applications.

Viscometer And Rheometer Description

MODEL : MDR Elastograph/S, RPA Visco-Elastograph, Mooney Viskosimeter, Rubber Capillary Rheometer

Manufactured in 4 or 6 cell configurations, Elastocon's cell ovens are available with either single temperature controller or multiple (individual) cell controllers and with a temperature range of 40 °C to 200 °C, or 40 °C to 300 °C.

MODEL : EB 01-II, EB 19, EB 20

Elastocon's cabinet ovens meet most ISO and ASTM standards for testing rubber and plastic materials. Depending on model, the ovens can be supplied with low air speed, high laminar or turbulent air speed, or with a carousel. It has excellent temperature stability and distribution achieved by using an inner chamber with a controlled air flow. It is ideal for ageing finished products and large test pieces which are unsuitable for cell ovens.

MODEL : EB 04-II, EB 10-II, EB 12-II, EB 26, EB 27

These ovens are designed for ageing tests according to ASTM D 865 Rubber-Deterioration by Heating in Air (Test Tube Enclosure). The ovens can also be used for testing in liquids according to ASTM D 471 and ISO 1817 Effect of liquids.

MODEL : EB 11-II, EB 28

Stress Relaxation Test system for continuous measurement in either compression or tension. Meets the requirements in ISO 3384, ISO 6914 and ASTM D6147.

The instrument has 3 test stations and an individual control of each test station as well as the temperature of each cell. The test rigs are based on our relaxation rig EB 02, but here the lowering and raising of the rigs as well as the compression or stretching of the samples are motor driven by a servo motor. 

The instrument is, by default, delivered with compression plates and 1000 N load cells with a temperature range between +40 up to +200 °C. Other accessories such as for testing in liquids, tension or temperature range up to +300 °C must be ordered separately.

Gehman Tester, ET 02-II, for determination of the relative stiffness characteristics of vulcanized or thermoplastic rubbers, also called the Gehman procedure. The test is done according to ISO 1432, ASTM D1053, or equivalent standards. The result is presented as the relative stiffness where the stiffness in RT is 1. If the test piece dimension are put into the software it can also calculate the modulus as a function of temperature.
