Automated HDT Vicat Apparatus for Advanced Polymer Research

DESCRIPTION / TECHNICAL SPECIFICATIONS

Introducing a highly intelligent and fully computerized polymer thermal testing system, designed for in-depth analysis of Heat Distortion Temperature (HDT) and Vicat Softening Point Temperature. This instrument is the ideal solution for universities, scientific research units, and quality supervision departments that require not just test results, but also comprehensive data analysis. With full compliance to a vast array of international standards—including ASTM D648, ASTM D1525, ISO 75, ISO 306, GB/T1633, and more—this system guarantees the validity and global recognition of your test data on materials like plastics, rubber, and nylon.

Engineered for precision and stability, the instrument features a robust vertical cabinet structure with a double-helix automatic stirring system in the constant temperature medium bath, ensuring exceptional temperature uniformity with an accuracy of ±0.5°C. A key advantage is its advanced mechanical automation; the three sample racks are equipped with an automatic lifting function (up and down), simplifying test preparation and improving workflow efficiency. The high-precision displacement sensor with dual-adjustment methods ensures accurate deformation measurement, while the integrated lifting system is designed for quiet operation.

The true power of this system lies in its powerful and intuitive control software. Operating on a Windows platform, the software transforms the machine into a complete analytical workstation. Operators can monitor temperature and deformation trends in real-time, with test curves dynamically plotted on the screen. Furthermore, the software enables historical data storage, providing the invaluable ability to retrieve past tests, perform comparative studies between different batches or materials, and print comprehensive test reports at any time.

This system is designed as an intelligent and flexible testing platform. The software is included as part of the package, while the Computer PC unit and Printer are offered as optional components, allowing laboratories to integrate the tester with their existing hardware. Safety features such as an emergency stop switch are also included. With its combination of advanced computer control, in-depth data analysis, and mechanical automation, this PC-controlled HDT Vicat Tester is the superior choice for advanced polymer research and the most stringent quality control.
