The oscillating Disc type Rheometer is an efficient, simple and reliable testing equipment. It is quite easy to operate. The Rheometer describes precisely and quickly curing and processing characteristics of vulcanizable rubber compounds. It works on a very simple principle. A test piece of rubber compound is contained in a sealed test cavity under positive pressure and maintained at a specified elevated temperature. A Rotor ( biconical disc ) is embedded in the test piece and is oscillated through a small specified rotary amplitude. This action exerts a shear strain on the test piece and the torque ( force) required to oscillate the disc depends upon Stiffness ( shear modulus) of the rubber compound.
