ZWK1000 HDT/Vicat Tester (3 Testing Stations)

ZWK1000 Series Heat Deflection and Vicat Softening Point Tester The ZWK1000 Series tester is a Precision Testing dedicated instrument used to determine: The Vicat Softening Temperature (VST): The temperature at which a flat-ended needle of 1 mm² cross-section penetrates a thermoplastic test specimen to a depth of 1 mm under a specified load and constant heating rate. The Heat Deflection Temperature (HDT): The temperature at which a standard thermoplastic test specimen, under a three-point bending load and constant heating rate, deflects by a specified amount. Key Features: Microcomputer Control: The entire test process is controlled by a microcomputer, which displays real-time values such as test temperature, elapsed time, and deformation curves. High Throughput: Capable of testing multiple specimens simultaneously. Automated Data Handling: Test data is processed, analyzed, automatically saved, and can be printed.
