Gemini - specification
The Malvern Bohlin Gemini is an advanced range of modular and compact rheometers with 'fluids to solids' capability. They are optimized for both strain controlled and stress controlled operation, can accept an extensive range of temperature control options, and have wide application in research and product development. Patented Rotonetic 2 drive technology allows the system to perform strain controlled tests in steady, dynamic and transient modes, as well as all stress controlled functions.
