HDT Vicat Tester - Heat Deflection & Vicat Softening Point Instrument
This advanced Thermal Deformation & Vicat Softening Point Tester features PLC programmable temperature control with computer display operation. Designed for exceptional accuracy and stable performance, the system provides real-time monitoring of test temperature and deformation values throughout the testing cycle. Automatic heating termination and comprehensive test reporting with graphical curve output make this instrument essential for quality control in inspection authorities, academic institutions, and manufacturing enterprises.
Test Method Definitions
Thermal Deformation Temperature Test: Determines the temperature at which a standard specimen deflects by a specified amount under bending load, achieving designated nominal surface stress in compliance with international standards. This method is crucial for plastic quality control and material R&D.
Vicat Softening Point Temperature Test: Measures the temperature at which a standard indenter penetrates 1 mm into the specimen surface under defined loading. Used to differentiate softening characteristics across various thermoplastic materials.
Key Features
- Specimen frame lifting mechanism for easy sample handling
