Can Desktop HDT Vicat Instrument Supports IS075-1974 ISO306-1974 Use for Plastic Heat Resistance Testing?

Abstract

Picking a qualified heat distortion and Vicat softening point Tester relies on your Test material types, temperature control accuracy, standard matching requirements and long-term operational stability.

Key Takeaways

· The selection of HDT & Vicat test equipment should be matched based on heating medium, temperature rise rate, number of test stations and international Testing specifications.

· KASON HDTV3003S adopts independent PID closed-loop temperature regulation, with temperature control error controlled within ±0.5℃, satisfying both authoritative laboratory calibration and daily factory quality inspection.

· Buyers shall pay attention to the full-life cycle cost rather than only the initial purchase price, including later silicone oil replacement, component maintenance and technical service costs.

· Complete supporting indenters, gradient weights and displacement sensors eliminate extra separate procurement of auxiliary accessories.

· Adopts natural air cooling design, fewer vulnerable parts, low operation difficulty and short operator training cycle.

· Optional 4-station or 6-station testing racks can be equipped to boost detection efficiency for large batches of samples.

Overview of HDT & Vicat Softening Test Equipment System

Similar to metal Universal Testing Machines, plastic thermal deformation testing equipment consists of two core modules: constant temperature heating bath main unit and high-precision temperature & micro-deformation measuring control system. The KASON HDTV3003S is an integrated all-in-one testing solution instead of discrete individual components. It combines compact bench-mounted frame, imported high-precision temperature sensing probe, high-sensitivity displacement measuring sensor and self-developed PID temperature adjusting program, to deliver stable, repeatable and accurate data for heat distortion and Vicat softening point tests.

· Maximum heating power reaches 3kW, equipped with two standard temperature rise rates (120℃/h & 50℃/h) to meet different standard test requirements

Intelligent Temperature Control System & Operation Highlights

· The temperature sensor transmits real-time temperature signals to the amplifier; after analog switching and A/D conversion, signals are transmitted to the digital temperature controller

· Built-in independent PID operation program, automatically adjusts heater power and heating duration to realize closed-loop constant temperature control

· Automatic uniform temperature rise throughout the whole test, no manual temperature adjustment needed by operators

· Simple human-computer interaction logic; LCD screen synchronously displays real-time temperature, deformation value and test duration

· Automatic stop protection after reaching the set deformation displacement, preventing over-test damage to samples and equipment

· Core highlight: simple operation, low training cost for new operators, safe and stable long-time continuous testing

Standard Compliance & Qualification Recognition

· Fully compliant with domestic GB/T series plastic thermal testing specifications

· Test data and operation processes are recognized by third-party testing labs, applicable for product certification and factory quality filing

Model Expansion & Customization Options

KASON HDTV3003S is the standard desktop HDT Vicat tester. For clients with large-volume sample testing demands, customized 4-station or 6-station multi-position test racks can be selected to improve daily testing throughput.
