Product Description
HDT VICAT Tester with Automatic Needle for Testing Heat Distortion and Vicat Softening Point of Plastics Rubber and Nylon
Product Overview
The Vicat Softening Point Heat Distortion Testing Machine (also referred to as the Automatic Needle Vicats Apparatus) is primarily engineered for thermal performance characterization of non-metallic materials, including plastics, rubber, and nylon. A key functional feature of the device is its ability to enable automatic elevation and lowering of the test frame at the start and conclusion of test procedures, streamlining specimen loading/unloading and test workflow efficiency.
This specialized testing instrument is dedicated to the precise determination of two critical thermal performance metrics for materials:
  • The heat distortion temperature of non-metallic specimens
  • The Vicat softening point temperature of electrical insulating materials
Its testing protocols align with industry standards for thermal property evaluation, providing reliable, repeatable data for material quality validation, R&D validation, and compliance assessment in related manufacturing and research fields.
Compliance Standards
GB/T 1633, GB/T 1634, ISO75, ISO306, ASTM D648, ASTM D1525, ISO 2507

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the temperature control range and accuracy of the Vicat softening point and heat distortion testing machine?
The device typically covers a temperature range from ambient temperature up to 300°C (or 350°C for high-temperature models), with a temperature control accuracy of ±0.5°C, ensuring precise thermal environment control for material testing.
What are the standard heating rates supported by this testing machine?
It complies with international testing standards and provides two common heating rates: 50°C/h (for Vicat softening point tests) and 120°C/h (for heat distortion temperature tests), with adjustable rates available for customized testing needs.
What test loads can the machine apply for Vicat and heat distortion tests?
For Vicat tests, it supports standard loads of 10N or 50N; for heat distortion tests, the load can be adjusted within the range of 0.45MPa-1.82MPa (or customized per specific industry standards), meeting different material test requirements.
What are the requirements for the size of test specimens applicable to this machine?
It is compatible with standard specimens for non-metallic materials: for Vicat tests, the specimen is typically 10mm×10mm×4mm (or other sizes per standards); for heat distortion tests, common specimen dimensions are 80mm×10mm×4mm, with fixtures adaptable to customized specimen sizes.
What type of control system does the testing machine adopt, and what data processing capabilities does it have?
It is equipped with a microcomputer-controlled system and industrial-grade color HMI, which can automatically record test data (temperature, deformation, time), generate test curves in real time, and support automatic storage and printing of test reports.
Does the machine have position or stroke limits for the test probe, and what is the measurement accuracy of deformation?
The test probe has a precise stroke limit (typically 0-10mm), and the deformation measurement accuracy is ±0.01mm, ensuring accurate capture of material thermal deformation or softening point data.
