Equipment Overview
This system conforms to JIS-R3103-1 “Glass softening point test method” (ISO 7884-6:1987, ASTM C338). The principle of measurement, preparation of samples, etc. are inherited from JIS, and direct reading is automated. The measurement program is operated on a PC, and the softening point measurement results can be confirmed on the PC.
Features
- Measurement program operation is performed on a PC.
- Automatic measurement is performed by using a photo sensor.
- Data can be saved on a PC for direct data processing.
