Advanced testing methods are considerably required by the competitive and quality-conscious global market for the companies manufacturing different kinds of industrial goods. Vacuum leak testing is helpful in maintaining the quality of products, ensuring the satisfaction of customers, and preventing the most common types of problems- the degradation of the packaging, containers, and other sealed products that identify the smallest imperfections without spoiling and contaminating the products and hence avoiding recalls.
Let's dig into the significance, processes, and reasons why Presto's vacuum leak testers are considered the go-to for some of the world's largest brands.
Vacuum leak testing is an applied non-destructive test technique to identify leaks inside sealed packages or containers. Vacuum leak testing seeks to create a vacuum inside a package and then measure the subsequent changes in pressure. In this method, evidence shows that a leak exists and air will penetrate the package and thus create a pressure that a tester can feel.
Presto is among the oldest vacuum leak testing machine manufacturers with more than 40 years of experience and has promised accuracy, reliability, and performance with its vacuum testers.
The vacuum testers from Presto were designed for a higher level of production that presents the capability of trusting one's products around the world with regard to vacuum testing.
Whether pharmaceutical, food and beverages, cosmetics, or automobile industries, it always guarantees that the packaging of your product is at the best quality with regard to safety.
Presto vacuum leak testers are known for the following:
Quality Assurance: Vacuum leak testing makes sure that the packaging is sealed properly. This helps in preventing contaminants from the outer environment like the bacteria, air and moisture from penetrating the packaging.
Extension of Shelf Life: Vacuum sealing can assist with broadening the time span of usability of food and beverages. Where the seal is broken, the shelf life can be severely truncated before spoilage or failure.
Compliance with Safety Standards: For pharmaceuticals and medical devices, regulatory bodies require vacuum leaks to be tested in a manner that the product remains aseptic and free from contamination at the time of packaging until it is open.
Brand Protection: Defects in the packaging mar the brand name and result in a costly product recall. Vacuum leak testing ensures that every manufactured product complies with very stringent safety and quality requirements.
Vacuum leak testing basically involves the following steps:
Sealing of the Package: At this step now, the package or the container to be tested is sealed in a testing chamber.
Generation of Vacuum: A vacuum is generated inside this chamber and the pressure inside the package is monitored very closely.
Measurement of Pressure: If there are leaks in the package, then air is being let inside it. This reduces pressure to the area that the vacuum leak tester will always look out for.
Analysis: The tester is set for a leakage reading and decides whether to release the product or send it back to processing.
All the testing is carried out within a controlled environment such that the results will not be compromised.
Accuracy: Commercial vacuum leak testers give accurate measurements for detecting even the smallest leaks. Because such accuracy becomes extremely crucial in industries like pharmaceuticals and food packaging, integrity is very critical.
Non-Destructive: It does not damage the product or package under test because it is unlike other forms of testing wherein the product or package is literally destroyed during testing.
Cost-effective: It saves money by detecting any defects at the early stages of production and hence avoiding expensive recalls of products and waste to make the whole operation more effective.
Rapid and Low-Cost: Being an automated option, vacuum leak tests could be run relatively quickly without a loss of accuracy, giving it excellent service in high-volume production lines.
Safety and Regulatory Compliances: Vacuum leak testing ensures the final product meets all relevant regulations and safety standards.
Multi-industrially versatile: Vacuum leak testing can be applied for all kinds of products coming in the pharmaceutical and medical instrument sector, food and beverages industries, and even in automobile and auto parts segments.
The vacuum leak tester from Presto are very sensitive instruments that can detect leaks as small as 0.1 mm. This means that vacuum leak testers from Presto detect every minor flaw.
Yes, the vacuum leak testers provided with Presto are multifunctional and can check all types of packaging in bottles, jars, pouches, and others made out of plastic, glass, and metal.
A vacuum leak testing machine may often need to be calibrated fairly frequently to get it operating properly. Presto can provide everything you require and will be there to assist with calibration and service to help keep your machine in as excellent a condition as possible.
