The Viscograph-E provides you with a complete picture of the gelatinisation behaviour of starches and all types of modified starches.
Your advantages
• Standardized: Reliable, reproducible measurement results
• Flexible: Programmable velocity and temperature profiles
• MetaBridge software: user-guided workflows, reference limits, measurement correlations, customizable methods & parameters and much more
• Connectivity: support for third-party solutions (ERP, LIMS)
Versatile use and precise results
For decades now, the Viscograph-E has been the worldwide standard device for temperature-based and time-based measurement of the viscosity of starch and products containing starch. Examination of your sample using this well-established solution provides you with a detailed characteristics profile of your test material that goes far beyond just the gelatinisation of the starch.
Thanks to the automatic programme sequence and comprehensive configuration options, your tests are carried out easily and conveniently. You can create as many individual temperature, time and speed programmes, as well as analysis profiles, as you like.
The measuring probe is placed directly in the sample, which guarantees the highest degree of measurement accuracy and reproducibility of the analyses carried out.
Principle
The sample is heated up within a rotating stainless steel bowl and cooled down again, both under controlled conditions. Together with the comfortable Windows software, the integrated, self-optimizing temperature controller allows programming and storage of any temperature profiles with heating/ cooling rates of 0.5…3 °C/min.
