Radical new platform designed from the ground up delivers intelligent rheology solutions

3 September 2008: Malvern, UK: Malvern Instruments has launched Kinexus, the radical new rotational rheometer platform whose development has been shaped by extensive market research and a fresh approach to addressing the real needs of users.

Designed entirely from the ground up, Kinexus redefines the rheometer. It enables users to spend less time learning how to interact with their system and more time investigating ways to characterize and enhance a material’s performance.

Kinexus incorporates technological innovations in the most critical areas of rheometer design, from sample preparation and loading, through measurement set-up and operation, to data analysis and reporting. Adaptive intelligence allows Kinexus to actively guide users at every stage.

Fully integrated into Malvern’s materials characterization range, Kinexus delivers high performance measurement supported worldwide by experts in rheology applications, and informed by the company’s expertise in complex materials, including particulate, macromolecular and multiphase systems.

Kinexus is highly flexible and easy to expand, ready for further evolution as new applications emerge. A true applications-led interface revolutionises and eases user interaction, bringing ‘expert system’ guidance and Standard Operating Procedure-driven processes to rheological measurement. At the same time a unique and intelligent sample loading system takes all the guesswork and error out of this fundamental and critically important process, for accurate results every time.
