HDT VICAT Tester with Maximum Temperature Error ±0.5°C
This precision instrument is extensively employed for measuring the Heat Deflection Temperature (HDT) and Vicat Softening Point Temperature (VST) of thermoplastic materials, ebonite, and long-fiber reinforced composite specimens.
Equipment Overview
The testing apparatus adopts a PC-controlled operating system, utilizing digital micrometers for precision deformation measurement. It generates real-time test curves, supports direct secondary processing of test data on a computer, and allows test data export to OFFICE software for further editing. The sample frame features an automatic lifting mechanism.
