Rheometer.

An addition to the Bohlin Gemini family of rheometers is optimized for the control of ultra-low torques, and is said to open up new opportunities to probe weak or sensitive material structures and low viscosity systems. Like previous Bohlin high resolution rheometers, the Bohlin Gemini HR Nano is said to offer advanced technology with straightforward operation. While enabling the measurement and control of nano-torque levels, it retains a continuous working torque range to 200 mNm, allowing complete rheological characterization, according to the company. Allied to the most sensitive normal force measurement available, the Gemini HR Nano is said to offer the ultimate in instrument capabilities for weakly-structured systems. Development of this rheometer is said to have been made possible through the continued advancement of the company's state-of-the-art bearing design, coupled with its patented Rotonetic 2 DSP drive system. The Bohlin Gemini HR Nano's unsurpassed range and sensitivity allow torque and speed control across all steady, dynamic and transient test modes, according to the company. Both strain controlled and stress controlled tests are said to be performed with ease. As modular systems, the Bohlin Gemini rheometers are said to offer a wide range of measurement geometries and accessories, with quick and easy configurations.
