Description
Automatic sheet former
Code: P.405.xxx
Use
For the production of laboratory sheets from cellulose using the Rapid Köthen method for physical tests.
Device description
The Rapid Köthen sheet former is built on a robust base with torsion-resistant stainless steel frame. The forming column, the white water tank and a switch panel for manual operation are located on the left-hand side of the watertight worktop. An easy-to-use touch display and the main switch are raised (for better operability) on the right-hand side. Only the most necessary switches are installed on the worktop for more working space and enough room to feed the wet sheet from the former column into the dryer. All parameters and the fully automatic sheet forming process as well as the drying process can be controlled intuitively and easily via the PTE Austria software installed on the touch display. It is possible to switch to manual operation at any time.
Automatic sheet former (RK-A)
The automatic sheet former is equipped with a touchscreen panel on which all time parameters for each step can be set. After pressing the start button, the sheet forming process runs automatically. A manual 6-position switch is also installed. It is therefore possible to switch to manual operation at any time.
Automatic sheet former with white water system (RK-C)
The model with white water circulation system works in almost the same way as the automatic system. Instead of letting the water run off after leaf formation, it is possible to store this “white water” in the separate water tank. This can be set on the touchscreen. The water stored in the white water tank can then be used when producing a new leaf. After the white water has been used several times, the stored water can be removed via an easily accessible outlet tap and used for chemical analysis, etc.
