It is critical in the packaging industry to utilize the appropriate items to convey materials without causing any damage. As a result, the items should be adequately wrapped to ensure that no errors occur during delivery. A lab heat sealer is a flexible testing machine used to perform sealing on flexible packaging materials and thermoplastic materials by applying heat and pressure at high temperatures. In the packaging industry, items are pressed under a certain pressure to ensure they are not harmed during transportation. With the help of this lab testing equipment, you can create an impermeable seal. This heat sealer forms the right seal so that materials are delivered without […]

These machines measure key properties such as: Ultimate tensile strength Yield strength Elongation Modulus Electromechanical test machines are ideal for low-force tensile testing up to 300 kN, while electrohydraulic configurations support higher loads up to 2000 kN. Tensile Testing Accessories Enhance your tensile testing process with high-quality accessories such as: Grips Cutting dies Environmental chambers Extensometers Tensile Test Applications Tensile tests play a crucial role in assessing material durability across various industries. Common applications include testing: Fabrics Metal alloys Paper products Plastic materials What is Tensile Testing and […]

Plastic Film Tester | for Paints and Coatings For coatings to perform satisfactorily, they must adhere to the substrate on which they are applied. A variety of recognized methods can be used to determine how well a coating is bonded to the substrate. Common measuring techniques include mechanical adhesion testing, plastics testing, or using a knife. Understanding Adhesion in Coatings Adhesion is the ability of a coating—such as paints and varnishes—to bond to a substrate (known as substrate adhesion) or to adhere to multiple coats in a system (termed inter-coat adhesion). For coatings to perform satisfactorily, they must bond effectively to various substrates including metal, concrete, wood, and more. Adhesion Test Methods […]

Introduction: Why Canned Tuna Firmness Matters In the processed food industry, ensuring the right canned tuna firmness is vital for maintaining product quality and meeting consumer expectations. For food manufacturers and quality control professionals, texture-related properties like tenderness and hardness significantly affect consumer satisfaction. But how can these attributes be assessed consistently? The answer lies in transitioning from subjective evaluations to objective measurement of tuna texture using precision instruments like texture analyzers. The Challenge: From Subjective Judgment to Objective Testing Traditionally, evaluating the texture of canned tuna relied heavily on expert opinion. However, such sensory judgments are inherently variable and difficult to replicate across different batches and operators. Tuna muscle and flesh, being irregular […]

Additionally, we’ll highlight Cell Instruments’ Hot Tack Tester and its applications, ensuring you gain valuable insights into the testing process and its benefits. What is Hot Tack Testing? Hot tack testing is an essential method used to measure the strength of a heat seal as it cools, specifically in the molten or semi-molten state. This test is crucial for flexible packaging materials, as it determines […]

Introduction to ISO 7864 ISO 7864 is an international standard that specifies requirements for sterile hypodermic needles intended for single use. This standard ensures the safety, reliability, and performance of medical needles by covering critical aspects such as dimensions, strength, sharpness, and functionality. Specifically, ISO 7864 addresses needle bonding strength, flow rate through the needle (patency of lumen), penetration force, and drag force for needles. Additionally, it includes provisions for sharps injury protection in accordance with ISO 23908 and requires that the conical socket of the hypodermic needle hub meet the requirements of ISO 80369-1. Needles according to the tubular needle designation must also comply with ISO 9626. The Role of […]

1. The Role of a Food Texture Analyzer in Snack Development Achieving the ideal texture in snacks is critical for consumer satisfaction. The crunch of a potato chip, the crisp snap of a cracker, or the satisfying bite of a pretzel can define a snack’s success. A food texture analyzer helps manufacturers measure these qualities objectively by quantifying the break force—the pressure needed to fracture a sample. 2. Break Force Detection for Different Snack Types Different snacks require unique texture characteristics. A food texture analyzer evaluates these properties to ensure each product meets its desired texture profile. Below are detailed examples of how break force detection applies to various snacks: 3. How Break Force […]
