| White Paper On Leak Detection following Successful Trials From Piotec |
|
|
|
Piotec, which specialises in 100% inline, non-destructive leak detection for sealed packaging, has recently carried out a number of very successful trials with companies who were unable to find a solution to prevent leaking packs reaching the supermarkets and ultimately the consumer.
During the trials, the technology has been proven to test each individual pack coming from the production line and will detect and automatically remove 100% of leaking packs, regardless of packaging type and gas used.
Customers have commented on the repeatability of the test method to detect leaks as small as 10 microns.
Piotec's machines are bespoke to suit each individual customer requirement in terms of line speeds and packaging, integration with production lines etc
The range includes Seal Solo which are manual offline machines, to Seal Plus which are inline machines testing each individual pack.
As a result of the success of the trials, Piotec has produced a white paper to help customers better understand the importance of leak detection, not only to remove every leaking pack, but to provide management information, and to drive process improvement.
The white paper, entitled ‘Achieving Zero Defects in Packaging Seal Quality’, is available through the company website – www.piotec.eu
