An instrument for measuring the flow of viscous liquids, such as blood.
 for the analysis of the flow behavior and processability of rubber compounds is highlighted in this four-page brochure.

This patented rheometer system is said to provide an automated cleaning process for all measuring parts that come in contact with the sample. The RCR's capillary is situated in a hydraulically operated tool below the measuring channel, against which it is pressed during the measuring process. After the measuring process, the tool retracts and rotating brushes clean all relevant parts.

The company's predecessor model, the RheoVulkameter, was already stress controlled, offering much greater sensitivity than any speed controlled instruments, according to according to

 the literature.

The new, more precise hydraulic drive of the RCR is said to be controlled to an accuracy of better than 0.1% of the pressure's maximum value.

The modular RCR concept offers several functions. One enables the user to run the RCR just as they ran the RheoVulkameter processability tester, which combined the functions of a capillary rheometer with those of an injection molding injection molding

 simulator. The RCR uses a convenient touchscreen as its main user interface, greatly adding to its overall user friendliness, according to the company.

Capillary rheometers are said to be the only measurement instruments able to rheologically characterize the flow behavior of rubber compounds. Unlike Mooney or oscillatory oscillatory

 tests, whose measuring ranges are below the process relevant measuring range, the RCR is said to cover the whole relevant range. RCR tests take no longer than three minutes "Three Minutes" is the 46th episode of Lost. It is the twenty-second episode of the second season. The episode was directed by Stephen Williams, and written by Edward Kitsis and Adam Horowitz. It first aired on May 17, 2006 on ABC. .
