Process rheometer platform for polymer applications is modular.


The Haake PolyLab open system (OS) platform is a torque rheometer rhe·om·e·ter
n.
An instrument for measuring the flow of viscous liquids, such as blood.
 system designed specifically for polymer processing applications. The modular platform's design is based on the flexible plug and measure concept. Because the platform is standardized on the CAN Open Bus for internal communication and the USB USB
 in full Universal Serial Bus

Type of serial bus that allows peripheral devices (disks, modems, printers, digitizers, data gloves, etc.) to be easily connected to a computer.
 interface for connection to a PC, the torque rheometer can be adapted quickly and easily to the specific requirements of an application, according to according to
prep.
1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians.

2. In keeping with: according to instructions.

3.
 the company.

A range of sensors and processing systems can be connected to the platform, enabling it to perform viscosity, conductivity and spectroscopy spectroscopy

Branch of analysis devoted to identifying elements and compounds and elucidating atomic and molecular structure by measuring the radiant energy absorbed or emitted by a substance at characteristic wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum (including gamma ray,
 measurements while mimicking commercial process equipment on a small laboratory scale, according to the manufacturer.

The system can perform both mixing and extruder experiments on polymers with much less effort than in the past. More laboratory or experimental work can be accomplished within a shorter timeframe because the entire sequence of experiments is defined and executed step-by-step via programmed software, according to the company.

Thermo Electron Thermo Electron Corporation (TMO (NYSE)) (incorporated 1956) is a major provider of analytical instruments and services for a variety of domains.

Thermo has revenues of over $2 billion, and employs 11,000 people in 30 countries.
