Single-column viscoMeter

A single-column viscometer uses a motor to drive a rotor rotating in the sample, measuring the resistance encountered by the rotor to calculate viscosity. It is used for detecting the viscosity of fluids such as coatings and inks, guiding adjustments in production processes.
Selection
When selecting, consider the measurement range covering the sample viscosity, the rotor specifications matching the sample volume, the temperature control function adapting to the operating environment, the data interface meeting recording needs, and the material's corrosion resistance satisfying testing requirements.
