 Brookfield Viscometers. The LFRA 4500G features a 4500kg load cell, enabling it to provide accurate, repeatable values for an increased range of properties, including hardness, fracture force, compression, viscoelasticity Viscoelasticity, also known as anelasticity, is the study of materials that exhibit both viscous and elastic characteristics when undergoing deformation. Viscous materials, like honey, resist shear flow and strain linearly with time when a stress is applied.  and many more.

The LFRA 4500G, with its large and growing range of probes and optional fixtures and accessories, allows many different tests to be carried out under 'real life' conditions.

For example: An extrusion cell to test the flow properties of yoghurt; a compression plate compression plate Orthopedics A plate used to stabilize fractures, used with lag screws to provide dynamic compression on the tension side of bone; dynamic CPs are the most common types of plates, and have special oval screw holes with a beveled floor and an  to test the structure of bakery goods; a three point bend assembly to calculate the break strength of biscuits, confectionery and many more; cutting blades to test the shear force shear force

Force acting on a substance in a direction perpendicular to the extension of the substance, as for example the pressure of air along the front of an airplane wing. Shear forces often result in shear strain.
 of meat products; a punch assembly to determine the shear force of meat products; a punch assembly to determine the shear of dough, fruit, vegetables and cheese products. Thanks to its heavier load cell, the capabilities of the LFRA 4500G now extends to the analysis of dough stickiness and extensibility of pastry, tortillas and pancakes.

Robustly constructed for long-life, reliable performance, the LFRA 4500G Texture Analyser can operate as a stand-alone instrument or with a PC and Texture Pro Lite software. Harnessing the full statistical power of Microsoft Excel (tool) Microsoft Excel - A spreadsheet program from Microsoft, part of their Microsoft Office suite of productivity tools for Microsoft Windows and Macintosh. Excel is probably the most widely used spreadsheet in the world.

Latest version: Excel 97, as of 1997-01-14.
, Texture Pro Lite captures a full range of texture parameters through an easy to use menu driven selection that eliminates the need for complicated macros. The purpose-designed software also maximises the possibilities of compression testing.
