Waters Rheometer brings the power of rheology

Powered by RheoGuide™ Software, this compact analyzer makes rheological insights more accessible to quality testing laboratories and material production facilities in batteries, pharmaceuticals, food, consumer goods, and other industries

11 Oct 2024

Waters Corporation has introduced the TA Instruments™ Discovery Core Rheometer, a streamlined, modern rheometer designed for routine manufacturing quality control and assurance laboratories. This new analyzer can handle multiple material types such as battery slurries, printing inks, food, and personal care products.

A compact instrument, it owes its smaller size to the use of self-contained temperature control and electronics. It features an easy-to-use touchscreen interface with self-guided training, methods, and applications for all levels of rheology users. It comes equipped with the new RheoGuide™ Software user interface (UI), designed for immediate walk-up use. This UI provides self-guided training applications and pre-defined methods coupled with on-screen alerts and indicators for easier sample set-up, faster, real-time data analysis, and improved operator safety.

The Discovery Core Rheometer shares methods and raw data file formats with other Discovery Hybrid Rheometers through TA Instruments TRIOS™ Software, enabling consistent measurements and data review from R&D to production.

Jianqing Bennett, Waters Corporation Senior Vice President of the TA Instruments Division, said, "Designed specifically for at/in-line manufacturing quality control testing, this streamlined, modern rheometer will allow better assessment of battery electrode slurry batch performance, helping to improve overall battery outcomes while reducing waste and production costs."
