Company History

The company Tracomme AG founded in 1941 in Geneva (Transport et Commerce) traded originally with all kinds of goods. The import of raw materials, chemicals and additives became very soon its core business. Tracomme AG is a general representative of many manufacturers and some of them have been represented for decades by Tracomme in Switzerland. Tracomme moved to Zurich in the mid-sixties, in 1991 to Adliswil and into its’ own premises in 2012 in Bonstetten. At the end of nineties Tracomme started trading with laboratory instruments including support and service.

Online Curing Behaviour of Foams Format Messtechnik SubFoam®

Battery used Puck, Datas transmitted by radio. For online measurement of the curing of block and crate foams. From the data of temperature and dielectrical polarization measurement, the maximum core temperature and the setting time can be calculated.

Foam Qualification System Resimat

The Resimat is test device for the investigation of the pressure relaxation and the recovery kinetics of visco-elastic foams. The foam sample is compressed vertically by means of a pressure plate onto an adjustable reference surface. The restoring force of strained foam is measured for a preselected hold time. While being compressed a force gauge measures the restoring force of the foam. At the end of the hold time the electro magnets are switched off and they instantly release the compression force and the sample recovers from the deformation regaining its original shape. An ultrasonic distance sensor positioned above the pressure plate continuously

The SpeciMold produces polymer specimen in a single step in-line, not needing several process steps as conventional production procedures require. The specimen have exactly the same properties and characteristics as the extrusion polymer and are, therefore, perfectly suited for further mechanical property tests. Unintentional material changes are thus excluded. For it is compatible with Brabender single and twin screw extruders as well as with third-party extruders, the injection molding parameters are easily editable and the injection molds can be changed quickly.

Simulate production realistically on a laboratory scale Brabender Measuring Mixers

Brabender measuring mixers are interchangeable measuring heads which serve, Connected to a Plasti-Corder®, lab-station or Plastograph®, for determination of thermoplastics, thermosets, elastomers, ceramic molding compounds, fillers, pigments and much more plastic and plastifying materials under praxis-oriented conditions, cost-effective, reliable and with little expenditure of time and material. The measuring mixers consist of a mixer backstand with gear unit and a mixer bowl. An electronic safety system prevents the drive unit from damage due to overload. The blades are made of special steel. Counter-rotation towards each other at different speeds provides excellent compounding and mixing characteristics. Heating/cooling is done either through a refrigerated circulator or electrically with air-cooling. The user-optimized WINMIX software provides evalutation of the results according to the latest standards.

Determining oil absorption Brabender Absorptometer “C”

The Absorptometer "C" Data Acquisition System consists of the following major components:

� frequency inverter drive unit with precise torque measurement � high-precision measuring mixer with special blades � high-precision burette, variable programmable titration rate for optimum test

procedure The measuring principle is the same as with the previous models, but in contrast to these, the instrument and burette do no longer stop automatically, enabling evaluation acc. to the new procedures B and C of ASTM D 2414.

Density determination of polymers Brabender Elatest®

Automatic determination of the density by means of sample weight and volume. The sample material is compressed in the measuring cylinder. Any gas contained in the sample escapes during this compression process. Under a preset pressure, the moving piston reaches a position which is specific for each individual sample, i.e. the sample is compressed to its specific volume. The stroke of the piston is measured by a displacement transducer and transmitted to the computer. From the sample weight and volume, the computer automatically calculates the respective density.

Polymer Analysis

Moisture measurement Brabender MT Aquatrac station

The new AQUATRAC® station shows the practitioner quickly, accurately and reproducibly what it is: About extremely accurate moisture measurement with an absolute resolution of 0.01 milligrams of water. The AQUATRAC® station stands not only for an extremely reliable measuring principle - Keyword: capacitive dew point - but also for reliability and reproducible results. And above all, for excellent user-friendliness! Reliable results in minutes, without any reagent without carrier gases, no consumables.

Moisture meter for plastics Brabender MT Aquatrac E3

When measuring the moisture content of granular solids it was developed primarily for the plastics processing industry. It is robust and compact design and can be easily transported by its new mobility. As an absolute measuring device requires no calibration work for different substances. Use is possible without a PC or other peripheral.

Online viscometer with shear rate control Brabender MT Convimeter

The CONVIMETER® used for continuous viscosity measurement, and optionally the control of liquids and pastes of any kind in the production process. The substances can be both reinviskos (Newtonian) and shear thinning (non-Newtonian) since the CONVIMETER® measures in defined measurement gap. Interference from granular particles and curing processes are strongly suppressed, magnetic particles do not affect the measuring method.
