Product news

Anton Paar’s High Throughput Rheometer (HTR) is a fully automated rheometer which is designed for concentric cylinder, cone-plate and parallel plate measurements.

The system features fully automated sample loading, trimming, measurement and cleaning for 24/7 operation. A high-precision robot in combination with the Anton Paar MCR 502 rheometer performs automated measurements on substances ranging from low-viscosity liquids to soft solids.

All patented features of the MCR 502, such as Toolmaster™, TruGap™,T-Ready™, TruRate™ and TruStrain™, are available with the HTR.

The system is obtainable as a standalone or can be fully integrated into other automation systems.

All features can be customized to fit individual needs. The robotic cell is compact, with dimensions of roughly 1700 x 1200 x 2000 mm (w/d/h).

RheometryRheometers are used to measure the rheology of fluids, which is the flow of fluids in response to an applied force. The most common types of rheometer include shear rheometers (capillary, cone and plate and rotational cylinder) and extensional rheometers. Viscometers are similar to rheometers however viscometers only measure the viscosity of a fluid.
