TOPSCAN^™ Thermal Analyzer

Thermally Optimized Pultrusion SCAN Instrument

Unprecedented on-line characterization for pultrusion process optimization and manufacturing troubleshooting

TOPSCAN^™ is an instrument designed by pultruders for pultruders. Pre-configured data acquisition and report formats provide the basis for rapid and meaningful experimental results.

TOPSCAN^™ - the ultimate on-line pultrusion process optimizer

• Increased pultrusion line speed
• Improved cure uniformity and reduced scrap
• Improved response to process problems
• Faster determination of processing window
• Evaluation of process long term stability

TOPSCAN^™ is the most complete product on the market designed to improve thermoset pultrusion process quality and efficiency.

TOPSCAN^™ is the on-line optimization tool for engineering and production that can benefit every pultrusion operation.

Based on an accumulation of processing experience, TOPSCAN^™ is designed to yield maximum information content through three key modes of testing:

• Material reactivity (bath exotherm test mode)
• Process reactivity (process exotherm test mode)
• Process stability (die temperature monitor test mode)

Productivity optimization can only be achieved by addressing each of these systematically, with knowledge of interactions. Data visualization is a strong feature of TOPSCAN^™ in operation and test evaluation.
