Cure Simulator

The Cure Simulator is ideal for cure optimisation studies and for online Cure Control eliminating the need of extra cure sensors in the mould


The Cure Simulator comprises a durable cure sensor attached in a heating cell that can be programmed through a Jumo temperature controller (picture below).
With a small resin quantity poured over the sensor into the heating cell, the resin can follow a prescribed temperature cycle while the resistivity is recorded in combination with an Optimold system.
Following a series of similar trials and the DSC results of the produced coupons, a full mapping of the curing behaviour of the resin can be generated.
