The RD 3000 compression density tester provides a simple and convenient way to determine the density of raw polymers, masterbatches and uncured rubber compound specimens of any shape or geometry. The instrument features an integrated precision scale for accurately measuring the weight of the specimen.
In a second step, all air trapped in the sample is removed by compressing the material in a massive barrel – once stabilized – allows the volume to be determined. Once the test sequence is finished the density is automatically calculated and displayed on the integrated touchscreen. Optionally the instrument can be controlled and test results can be remotely acquired by the MonDevice software system.
