Incorporating technological innovations that enable optimal flexibility in rheological test capabilities and protocols.
The Kinexus Prime DSR-III forms part of a standard dynamic shear rheometer package to meet the demanding needs of research, product development, comparative benchmarking, quality control and assurance required by the global Asphalt / Bitumen Industry with true ‘plug and play’ functionality for all measuring systems and environmental control units. The Kinexus Prime DSR-III enables pioneering Standard Operating Procedure (SOP) based testing while offering access to a full range of standard rheological tests with total flexibility of test design and set-up.
Inductive motor technology
The device offers precise torque control thanks to an ultra-light, electronically commutated motor. This enables rapid changes in torque and speed as well as access to higher oscillation frequencies without extensive adjustments. The wide torque range allows measurements from low-viscosity liquids to solids without changing test conditions or measurement geometries. Intelligent motor cooling regulates the operating temperature according to torque and power requirements.
Precision air bearing
Provideing frictionless support between moving parts through sintered, porous carbon for even air distribution and enables torques below 1 nNm. High axial and radial stiffness increases robustness and reduces compliance.
High precision rotational system
Precision measurement of rotor position and speed:
Optical encoder with nanometer resolution measures smallest radial displacements and speeds.
Sample placed close to the measuring point for optimized sample reaction.
