Haake Mars rheometers Available in two versions, the 40 and 60 models, the new Thermo Scientific rheometers can be adapted for application-specific or advanced testing needs. They are suited for quality-control testing of materials used by the plastics, cosmetics, pharmaceutical and food industries.

What's new? The use of a two-column modular design and Connect Assist technology, which recognizes measuring geometry accessories and the temperature control module automatically once they are plugged in. The rheometers made their debut in June at the Achema chemical engineering conference in Frankfurt, Germany.

Benefits Ease of use, modularity, reduced handling time, broad range of accessories. Using the Connect Assist technology, the rheometers can provide real-time feedback, making it easy for users to set up sample testing procedures with minimal errors. In addition, the rheometers' design allows for easy access for sample preparation with quick-fit accessory connection and measurement setup. The devices can be bundled with task-specific accessories, allowing users to more easily streamline their workflows and optimize the time from lab to market.
