Pouch Compression Tester is an equipment suitable to evaluate the overall seal integrity of “liquid” or “paste” filled pouches when subjected to external compressive force.
Dynamic and Static load tester
Dynamic:
Test type: press until failure
In this method, the sample is compressed with increasing force until the pouch bursts
Static:
Test Type: press until load setpoint. hold until the time setpoint
In this method, the sample is compressed up to the Load setpoint pre-set by the user. The applied force is held on the pouch for some time (pre-set by the user). After the time elapses, the machine automatically returns to its original position. However, If the pouch bursts before the set point is achieved, then this becomes a destructive test. The machine automatically stops on sample failure or when the preset load time is achieved, whichever is earlier.
