Liquid Viscosity Measuring Cup

The liquid viscosity measuring cup determines viscosity by measuring the time it takes for a fixed volume of liquid to flow out from a small hole at the bottom of the cup. After calibration, the outflow time is proportional to the viscosity. It is used for on-site rapid testing of fluid flow characteristics in industries such as coatings and inks.
Selection
When selecting, consider matching the viscosity range of the liquid being tested with the cup specifications, determine the orifice size according to standard requirements, verify temperature adaptability, and confirm the validity of the calibration certificate. Stainless steel offers corrosion resistance, while plastic materials are lightweight and economical.

Lab Mixer Selection - Viscosity Determines Torque
This article mainly discusses how to select a laboratory mixer based on the viscosity of the material. The higher the viscosity, the greater the torque required. Low-viscosity liquids are suitable for high speed and low torque, while high-viscosity materials require low speed and high torque.

The negative pressure leak detector evaluates the seal integrity of vacuum packaging by simulating a pressure differential environment. The instrument places the sample in a testing chamber and creates a vacuum to form negative pressure. If there is a leak, air or liquid will seep into the packaging, and the result is determined by observing pressure changes or the presence of bubbles.
