Adhesive Viscosity Meter

Adhesive viscometers determine flow characteristics by measuring the internal resistance of fluids. When the rotor rotates in the sample, it encounters resistance, and the sensor converts this resistance value into a viscosity reading. They are used for rapid on-site monitoring of adhesive consistency during production, ensuring stability in coating and filling processes.
Selection
Select the rotor and speed combination based on the type of adhesive, using a smaller rotor for high-viscosity materials. Ensure the measurement range covers the viscosity variation interval of the sample. Temperature compensation functionality is needed to address environmental fluctuations. Portable devices are suitable for on-site testing, while laboratory use requires a constant temperature setup.
