REX – Rheology Extrusion System is designed to continuously sample polymer powder, flake, or pellets from a process and convey it to a small 3/4-inch extruder, which melts and conditions the sample for rheological testing. This system provides capability for continuous monitoring of polymer MFR and viscosity, or other analyses, for quality and process control.

Features:

• Multiple online analyses (rheology, composition, contamination)
• Installation on the manufacturing floor or outside of the production area
• Automated pneumatic transfer of samples to extruder
• Fast response time for process control applications
• Simple calibration
• Data i/o communication to a distributed control system (DCS)
    via digital or analog signals
