Nano-Torque & Nano-Strain Boosts Rheological Measurement Control and Analysis

14 Jan, 2008

Published over 18 years ago. See the latest and most current information on Analytical instrumentation.

The new Nova Rheometer from ATS RheoSystems (USA) features a unique "Net-Zero" bias bearing system. This null balance system allows for Nano-Torque and Nano-Strain measurement control and analysis. Also featured is an innovative, low inertia drag cup motor utilizing novel "Feed Forward" strain and speed control. The torque range is from 3 nNm to 200 mNm. It is possible to extend this to 1 nNm on the low end and 230 mNm at the high end for certain test parameters.

The Nova’s strain resolution is 0.01 ìrad. Additional standard features include "Auto-Detect" measuring systems, video & image software, and high performance open-source instrument control software. Also featured are patented differential pressure normal force sensor, a camera viewer, ethernet communications, high-speed USB port and RheoExplorer
V6 Software.
