"We needed a viscosity measurement solution with very good accuracy and repeatability, evolved electronics for distinct operating conditions, easy communication with our systems, and large ranges for temperature and pressure. We looked at five different systems. The Sofraser MIVI viscometer came up as best-in-class in each category."
CECD's Technician - Air Liquide
"Every operator feels safer now that the viscometer is installed because stress created by the hardening issue is avoided. In addition to stability and quality, production efficiency has increased."
Mr. Inçargarat - Rolpin - Development and Technical Manager
"The viscosity is continuously monitored during the mixing process and the operator receives a signal when the mixture is ready or mixed according to its specifications. The choice of the SOFRASER viscometer was mainly its ease of use. And it has already proven itself. We have nothing to do and we only check the meter once a year during the overall tank maintenance."
Hans Aerts - Derbigum - R&D Manager
"The production impact is huge. Now that the operator directly reacts to a root cause generating a bad viscosity value, blocked product volume is decreased, the tank idle time is reduced, and ingredient loss is now insignificant. We were able to banish all dead zones and to avoid any cross-contamination. The Sofraser solution is perfectly adapted to our mixing process."
Dior - Process Quality Manager
"When I sent my 28 years old MIVI process viscometer back to the factory for checking and maintenance, Sofraser advised to replace it by a new unit and I agreed that this proposal was more than reasonable. Indeed after almost 3 decades of service my old unit has been more than profitable and the new unit will comply with the latest standards of design and manufacturing."
Kodak - Process Technician (Thermal Media Manufacturing)
"I purchased an inline viscometer from SOFRASER and they have been a trusted resource. We have seen a 10% reduction in downtime and have eliminated nozzle failure issues stemming from paint viscosity."
