“The FTBSL6 Laboratory Fluidized Temperature Bath from Accurate Thermal Systems is a great addition to UMass Lowell’s Dynisco Plastics Rheological Properties Lab.  It provides a fast safe way to clean small metal parts that get coated with plastic and it is small enough to fit in our fume hood for ventilation.  We routinely use the FTBSL6 to clean the retention nuts for our capillary rheometer and melt flow indexers, components for small extrusion dies, and elements for our small twin screw compounding lines.  The lab environment here at UMass Lowell is quite dynamic serving both research and teaching needs, and the Laboratory Fluidized Temperature Bath gives us the flexibility to clean small parts quickly and safely during the course of experimentation, which would typically be interrupted by long cycles in a conventional vacuum burn-out oven.”
