Malvern redefines the rheometer

A Malvern Instruments product story
Edited by the Manufacturingtalk editorial team Sep 9, 2008

Malvern Instruments has launched Kinexus, a rotational rheometer platform that enables users to spend more time investigating ways to characterise and enhance a material's performance.

Kinexus incorporates technological improvements in sample preparation and loading, measurement set-up and operation, plus data analysis and reporting.

It is able to actively guide users at every stage of measurement through adaptive intelligence.

Kinexus pro is a high-end rheometer suitable for a wide variety of routine and research applications.

Kinexus ultra can be used for even the most demanding low-torque applications, such as weakly structured and small volume sample measurements.

Kinexus is flexible and is ready for further expansion as new applications emerge.

A sample loading system takes all the guesswork and error out of rheological measurement.

Central to Kinexus is rSpace, a software system that invites users to work at the level most appropriate to them.

This might be to solve a material or process problem with an application-led approach, experiment using a library of established rheological methodologies, or design tests from scratch.

The Kinexus rheometer also includes the rMotion drive.

This optimised motor has an adaptive air bearing that automatically configures its operation according to test conditions.

Across all material types, rMotion allows Kinexus to capture the true material properties.

Environmental controllers and geometries for Kinexus are plug-and-play.

Results and analysis can be tailored specifically to a particular measurement, material type or application.

The Kinexus can be fully integrated into Malvern's materials characterisation range.
