Overcoming the challenges of melt index testing with the Aflow The Aflow is characterized by its high level of automation. Whether simple cleaning and defined pre-compaction at the press of a button, or steplessly adjustable test loads, the Aflow extrusion plastometer adapts to your testing needs: The Aflow was specially developed for research and development, shift work with changing operators and production control, where speed, operator-independent testing and a high level of repeatability and reproducibility of test results play an important role. The instrument supports worldwide common standards and methods: ISO 1133, ASTM D1238, ASTM D3364, JIS K 7210 for MFR and MVR measurement according to methods A, B, C and D.
