Cylindrical viscoMeter

The cylindrical viscometer measures the shear resistance generated by the sample in the gap between the inner and outer cylinders through their relative rotation. It is used to detect the viscosity of fluids such as coatings and inks, guiding adjustments in production processes and quality control.
Selection
When selecting, consider matching the sample viscosity range with the instrument's capacity, ensuring temperature control accuracy suits the experimental environment, matching rotor specifications to sample characteristics, selecting materials with corrosion resistance that meet testing requirements, and ensuring the data reading method aligns with operational habits.
