This Brabender PLasti-Corder PL 2000 is a laboratory viscosity testing machine — sometimes referred to as a rheometer or torque rheometer — used to measure the flow and processing behaviour of plastics, rubber, and other viscous materials under controlled conditions. Brabender is a well-established German manufacturer with a long history of producing precision laboratory and process control instruments for the plastics, food, and materials science industries.
The unit is configured as a twin-screw extruder system, with serial numbers 911021 and 901455, and is designated type DSK 42/7. The extruder features twin screws with a diameter of 42 mm and a length-to-diameter ratio of 7, served by three independent heating zones for controlled temperature profiling along the barrel. Variable screw speed is adjustable across a range of 5 to 120 rpm, allowing the operator to replicate a broad spectrum of processing conditions. The system includes one double-screw extruder unit and one standard extruder unit.
The machine comes with a Dell computer, which is typically used in conjunction with Brabender's data acquisition and analysis software to record and evaluate torque, temperature, and speed data throughout testing. The footprint measures 1.7 × 0.7 metres with a total height of 1.6 metres, making it suitable for laboratory environments where floor space is a consideration.
The unit is located in Barneveld, Netherlands, and has been tested and confirmed to be in working condition.
