CaBER® Upgrades

< back

Over five years ago Cambridge Polymer Group invented the Capillary Breakup Extensional Rheometer (CaBER®).

CPG is pleased to announce a range of enhancements that greatly improve the flexibility of the instrument and the quality of the data generated.These enhancements are designed to interface with the existing commercial CaBER® currently marketed by Thermo Haake.

Enhancements

  • Enhanced Resolution
    • New data acquisition system improves theoretical resolution to <0.4 μm
  • Conductivity Determination of Break-up
    • By adding a conductivity sensor between the plates a measure of the breakup-time can be obtained in situations where the laser micrometer is not sufficient, such as for very-low viscosity fluids and for unusual deformation modes.
  • Synchronized Video Acquisition
    •      A separate software modules runs in parallel with the CaBER® software to      allow capture of images synchronized to the CaBER® data.
    •      Black and White
    •      Maximum frame rate 100fps (720x280 pixels)
    •      Minimum shutter time 0.5 ms
    •      Maximum recommended frames 200
