Melt Flow Index Tester MFi7 with Safety Shield

The MFi Series has been thought to guarantee high safety levels. Nevertheless, some field of application may require additional measures to comply with stricter regulations. For this reason, we have equipped our MFi7 with a safety shield that covers the whole test masses area. Thanks to the interlock sensor, whenever the operator opens the shield during masses movement/displacement the operation automatically stops.
