HDT/V110 - Thermal Deformation Tester

The HDT/V110 Tester is designed to determine the Heat Deflection Temperature (HDT) and the Vicat Softening Point of plastic materials.
During testing, all specimens are subjected to a constant load and immersed in a heating bath where the temperature is increased at a standardized rate.
The heat resistance achieved by a plastic material is a critical parameter widely used for product characterization, quality control, and verification of compliance with intended application requirements.
An optional software package allows the generation of graphical reports showing specimen deformation and temperature increase as a function of time, providing detailed insight into the thermal behavior of the material.
Features
- Control System: Available with touchscreen or PC-based operation.
- Temperature Control Range: Ambient temperature up to 300°C.
- Number of Testing Stations: 2, 3, 4, or 6 stations (optional).
- Accurate determination of Heat Deflection Temperature (HDT) and Vicat Softening Point.
- Real-time monitoring of test parameters.
- Suitable for quality control, material development, and research laboratories.
- Optional software for advanced analysis and graphical reporting.
- Designed for reliable, repeatable, and standards-compliant thermal testing.
