The All-Round Instrument for Convenient Testing
ZwickRoell's HDT/Vicat Allround instruments determine the heat deflection temperature (HDT), and are designed to enable convenient testing in research and development, goods inwards checks and production monitoring as well as for educational and training purposes.
The instruments are available in various versions with up to six testing stations according to requirements. Test-sequence parameterization and display of measured values are conveniently handled via ZwickRoell testing software.
