Leak Tester

Purpose of Leak Tester is to validate the rigid bottles before filling. It has a rejection system which rejects the leak bottles / containers. The machine shown is an Online Leak tester. The machine operates at a speed of 35-38* bottles per minute for 1 Liter containers. The machine offers an easy change between the type of containers to be tested.

* Offline Leak Detectors can also be offered with out conveyor.

 

 

 

Vacuum Tester

Vacuum tester are used for testing the strength of the seal of the container. The containers / bottles can be induction sealed using one from our wide range of Induction sealing Machines. The dial gauge on the testing chember indicates the actual vacuum being generated inside the chember. The seal which withstands vacuum more than 400-500 mmHg would be an acceptable seal.

 

 

Drop Tester

Drop testers are used for validation of strength of the moulded containers. This drop tester is designed such that the 90% water filled container can be placed on the resting platform and allowed to be droped in 6 to 8 different orientations. Generally the drop height is set to 1.2 meters or as per the specifications of the user. The test is considered to be successfull if no leak is observed from any part of the container after the drop.

A fresh container should be used for each drop at different orientations.

 

Vibration Tester

Vibration test is conducted to validate the container for rough terrain travel. The test duration can be timed between 0 to 30 minutes with the help of the timer provided on the Control panel.

A filled and sealed container upto its capacity is placed onthe test bed and duly clamped.

The duration of test is adjusted between 0-30 min.

Most conviniently acceptable timing is 15 min for an amplitude of 20 mm and a frequency of 250 cycles/minute

Option for adjustable cycle time if required is available.

 

 

 

Compression Tester

For validation of strength of the containers, Compression Test is carried out. This test is used for confermity of the stack factor.

An empty container duly sealed and capped is placed between the to horizontal plates. The vertical force at which the test is to conducted can be set. The set force is indicated by the dial gauge on the tester.

The differnce between the distance of the two hizontal plates before the force is applied and after the force applied determines the ability of the container to withstand the force.

 

 

Neck Shaving

Neck Shaving is used in order to achieve a perfect neck surface and land area on the neck of the blow moulded container. If you have a perfect neck surface and land area then sealing is perfect. This sealing can be with an Induction Seal or cap seal wads. Due to this process consistency in sealing is achieved
