RD 3000

Uncured Rubber Density Tester

Precision Density Testing for Non-Vulcanized Compounds and Rubber Masterbatches

Uncured compression density is the fastest method for rubber mixers to reproducibly determine density of their final mix or masterbatch materials. Taking only seconds, the RD 3000 enables laboratory users to release materials for processing faster than ever. Due to the extremely rugged instrument design and easy sample preparation, the unit is available for placement in production laboratories or mixing environments. Connect to MES, Batch Release, Mixing, LIMS, and any production software.
