Technical data

The Concora medium fluter consists of a main case and a fluter case. The motor and controls are installed in the main case. Behind the safety cover of the fluter are the geared elements and heating elements. On its top there is a slot for insertion of samples. The thermostat, mounted in the main case, regulates and displays the fluter segment’s temperature. The standard unit is delivered with integrated geared segments for A flute. For other flute types, the Concora medium fluter with exchangeable flute segments (see pages 146 – 147) is available. The corresponding “third hand” and tamping block are used for adhesively attaching the previously created flute.

A 152.4 x 12.7 mm test strip is created with the strip punch (see page 207) and fed into the sample slot that leads to the fluter which has been preheated to operating temperature. On pushing the start button geared segments pull the strip through the machine and press it with a defined force and preset temperature, creating flutes in the strip. After flute creation, it is delivered to a compartment for removal by the operator. It can now be used for a CCT test or prepared for the CMT test using the “third hand”. In this process the flute is placed on the flute block and the third hand is closed. An adhesive tape acc. to standard is then applied to the flute, and the tamping block is used to firmly attach it. At this point the flute block is pushed sidewards and the tape is removed.

The Concora fluter with exchangeable geared segments varies from the standard model (see pages 144 – 145) because it has quick latches attached to the swivel arms. As soon as the unit has cooled, the cover of the fluter case can be removed by taking out the fixing bolt. Opening the quick latch on the swivel arms loosens the geared segments, allowing them to be removed from the front and exchanged. It is important to ensure while doing this that the geared segments engage exactly with each other when they are inserted.

✓ Force control with a spring balance

✓ Fast heating after changing the fluting segments

✓ Quick clamping device built onto the swivel arm

✓ Included into delivery:

• Chosen fluting segment set• "Third hand" and tamping block
