THE FIRST INLINE VISCOMETER TO BE INSERTED
DIRECTLY IN THE EXTRUDER STREAM
SOFLUX viscosity sensor is a new vibrating inline process viscometer
with a dedicated shape allowing easy integration into any plastic,
polymer or elastomer extruder.
It is the ideal solution to monitor any extrusion process even the most
demanding like speciality compounding, recycling, reactive extrusion…

Based on the proven vibrating technology of Sofraser:
Reliable, repeatable and continuous measurements combined with
superior quality result in permanent production efficiency and
increased profitability.

First real inline viscosity measurement for melted polymers:
Installed between the screw and the die, the Soflux measures
viscosity directly inside the flow and in real time avoiding any error
due to the evolution of the product outside of the process.

Extrusion, injection

Easy correlation: Viscosity by the Soflux can be correlated to
usual parameters like MFI or intrinsic viscosity (iV) in order to
control the extrusion process via analog or digital output.

Minimal maintenance: Thanks to its design, the Soflux does not
have drift in time and is easy to clean. Designed in 316 stainless
steel, it is robust and reliable.

Recycling, Compounding

Whatever your industry, we understand and
develop solutions for many applications.
