Viscosity Cup Testing Instrument Viscometer Ford Cup

Product overview

Core functionalities

Applicable scenarios

Unique advantages

  • Viscosity Measurement: Designed to measure liquid viscosity using the Ford Cup method, determining flow time and consistency for paints, coatings, inks, and adhesives.
  • Precision Stability: Metal cups (stainless steel/brass) ensure durability and resistance to heat/corrosion, while adjustable stands provide stable positioning for accurate readings.

Key features

  • 1. Corrosion-Resistant Metal Construction

    • With a corrosion-resistant metal body (stainless steel/brass), you can ensure durability in harsh environments, outlasting plastic-based alternatives*.

  • 2. Adjustable Multi-Post Stand Design

    • With adjustable clamps and multi-post stands, you can customize positioning for different cup sizes, offering greater flexibility than fixed designs*.

  • 3. High-Temperature Compatibility

    • With heat-resistant metal components, you can safely handle high-temperature applications (e.g., hot beverages or industrial testing) without deformation, surpassing non-heat-treated materials*.

  • 4. Precision-Engineered for Lab/Industrial Use

    • Designed for lab or industrial precision, you can achieve stable measurements in demanding settings, unlike general-purpose testing tools*.

  • 5. Compliance with EU and German Standards

    • Certified to CE and EPR_Germany_Packing standards, you can ensure safety and environmental compliance, enhancing trust over non-certified alternatives*.

Supplier's note

  1. Technical Breakthroughs:

    • The Pro Model’s 316L stainless steel offers 30% higher corrosion resistance than industry standards, ideal for aggressive chemicals.
    • The Advanced Model’s PVD coating reduces wear by 20% compared to uncoated bases, extending lifespan in abrasive environments.
    • IoT-enabled Pro Model sensors provide real-time viscosity data, eliminating manual errors.

  2. Optimal Version Selection:

    • Base Model: Suitable for small labs or basic viscosity testing (e.g., paint quality checks).
    • Advanced Model: Best for industrial plants requiring frequent adjustments (e.g., chemical manufacturing).
    • Pro Model: Recommended for R&D facilities needing extreme durability and precision (e.g., aerospace material testing).

With the Pro Model’s tripled chemical resistance and IoT integration, you can safely handle concentrated acids while automating data logging. The Advanced Model’s motorized clamps reduce operator fatigue in high-volume production lines. Choose based on your application’s temperature, chemical exposure, and automation needs.
