There are multiple Equipment and Tools are necessary for Sanitaryware laboratory to conduct day today testing and keep the parameters on check. These equipment & tool are essential for incoming Raw material check , Slip rheological properties checking, Glaze rheological properties, Casting departments condition, Kiln Temperature profile & final product properties testing.
Here is the list of Equipment & tools list required for Sanitaryware laboratory:
| Equipment/Tool | Image | Remark |
|---|---|---|
| Torsion Viscometer |  | To check Rheological property of Slip & glaze |
| Electrical Lab Dryer |  | For Samples drying. |
| Water Absorption Machine |  | To test water absorption of fired samples |
| Modulus of Rupture (MOR) machine: (Green And Fired) |  | To check MOR of green and fired Samples |
| Vicat Apparatus |  | To check Plaster of Paris properties. |
| Jar Mill |  | To Grind lab samples of glaze. |
| Autoclave |  | To check the crazing. |
| Weighing Scale |  | For Checking weight for calculation. |
| Density Cup |  | TO measure the density of slip & glaze. |
| Stop Watch |  | To measure the time for thixo and other tests. |
| Thermometer |  | To measure the Temperature of the slip. |
| Digital Vernier Caliper |  | For checking Casting rate and other size measurements of samples. |
| TDS meter |  | To check the Water |
| PH Meter |  | To check the PH. |
| Residual Sieves |  | To check residues in slip and Glaze. and to decide the unloading time. |
| Spectro photo Meter |  | Check the color matching for the new batch of glaze. |
| Lab Stirrer |  | To prepare samples and maintain the rheological properties. |
| Bullers Rings |  | To check the heat work happened in the Kiln. |
These are basic Requirement of the Equipment and tolls in the sanitaryware production Process to control the sanitaryware defects.
