What is a Melt Flow Index Tester used for?

A Melt Flow Index Tester measures the flow rate of molten plastic under controlled temperature and pressure conditions. It is essential for determining the viscosity, flow properties, and overall quality of thermoplastic materials. Industries like packaging, automotive, and manufacturing use this device to ensure material consistency and meet performance standards. By analyzing the melt flow index, manufacturers can optimize production processes, ensuring the final product meets desired specifications and industry requirements.
