Repeatable rheometer and viscometer results start with repeatable samples. The Alpha Sample Cutter produces a constant-volume rubber sample in seconds.
To cut a constant-volume sample
One for rheometers, one for Mooney viscometers
Samples sized for MDR, RPA and MV sample trays
Optical-sensor activation for operator safety
Inconsistent sample volume and shape add unnecessary variation to your results. Torque depends on how close or far apart the dies are, so variation in sample volume becomes variation in your data.
Alpha’s industry-proven Constant Volume sample cutters give you identical samples, with one model for rheometers and one for Mooney viscometers. More reliable data lets you set tighter specifications and deliver better final products.
Cut a constant-volume rubber sample in seconds and get back to testing.
Choose the rheometer or Mooney viscometer model. Samples fit the corresponding sample trays perfectly.
Makes efficient use of bench space and fits easily alongside your instruments.
Optical sensors require both hands to activate the cutter, so no shield guard is needed.
