FT4 Powder Rheometer

Freeman FT4 – Universal Powder Flow Tester and Rheometer

The Freeman FT4 is the industry’s most advanced instrument for powder flow characterization, providing a complete understanding of how powders behave under real process conditions. Designed specifically to measure powder rheology, the FT4 combines dynamic flow, bulk, shear, and process testing in one fully automated, high-precision system.

With its unique measurement principle, the FT4 simulates real manufacturing environments by testing powders in consolidated, aerated, or fluidized states. Conditioning modes ensure exceptional repeatability, while automated test programs and integrated data analysis deliver rapid, standardized results. The system accommodates sample volumes from 1 mL to 160 mL, supporting everything from research applications to industrial quality control.

At Prisma Scientific, our specialists provide expert training, method development, and application support, helping laboratories translate powder flow data into actionable insights for process optimization and product performance.

Key Applications

• Battery materials and additive manufacturing

• Pharmaceuticals and fine chemicals

• Ceramics and coatings

• Cosmetics, toners, and food powders

Why Choose FT4

Now part of the Malvern Panalytical and Micromeritics family, the FT4 represents the global standard for powder rheology. With unmatched sensitivity and versatility, it distinguishes even subtle differences between powders that other testers classify as identical — making it the definitive solution for modern powder characterization.
