Check on Plastic & PET Containers – Preforms
Burst Check Plast
This instrument measures the resistance to pressure of PET bottles and allows you to check if the bottle is qualified to meet the production requirements requested.
The instrument can operate according to three different standard test programs:
- fill ramp mode: the sample is subjected to different pressures and times to assess the seal under the conditions set
- burst mode: the sample is subjected to increasing pressure until it bursts
- custom mode: it is possible to set the test characteristics according to the operator’s specifications
Top Load Check PL
The sample is secured to the test support where it must withstand the weight of a greater load.
The measurements that can be taken are: load resistance, buckling, crush resistance and buckling of the side walls of the bottle.
The instrument is practical and easy to maintain, providing useful data for quality control to improve the product.
Base Clearance Check
The instrument is used to measure the distance from the base (height of the dome to the lower part) of PET bottles.
The results are displayed on an integrated digital indicator.
Verticality Check PET
Complete with rotation clamps, digital indicator and calibration column, it is used to measure the verticality of PET bottles. It is the industry standard in the production of PET bottles and in the beverages industry.
Verticality Check PRF
It is used to test the verticality of preforms.
It is the standard equipment for the PET bottle industry and beverages industry.
This instrument consists of a rotating clamp, indicator, calibration column and vertical column and guarantees absolute precision. The rotating clamp can be customised and replaced. Special calibration columns and clamps are required for preforms with openings of variable diameter.
Digital Height Check
The instrument is used to measure the height of plastic and PET containers, in addition to containers for beverages, food and aerosol containers, using the same homing platform. The base on which the container is placed which is perfectly flat since it is made of rectified steel is also used as a reference for homing the system.
The calliper can be connected to an external computer or SPC system via a communications interface.
Thickness Gauge
It is used to measure the thickness of a PET preform.
The measurement pressure is adjusted mechanically so that the result is not altered by operator intervention.
This calliper consists of a measurement clamp and a digital indicator and can be adapted to different size preforms.
Seal Check
Instrument for checking the tightness of the closure.
The Seal Check is used to check the integrity and strength of the closure in beverage cans, glass bottles with plastic closures or capsules or crown caps and PET containers (bottles, preforms, plastic bottles).
The container is immersed in water and subjected to internal pressure via a punch which pierces the closure. The closure is deemed correct if there is no air bubble leak to the pressure applied.
The instrument comes in two versions: one or three working positions.
