Frequently Asked Questions
With non-destructive leak detection, you can achieve considerable savings. Leaking packages cause losses across the entire chain and could inflict significant damage to a brand’s image. Each factory is unique and savings are relative to the circumstances, the product and the raw materials used. Non-destructive leak testing allows for even bigger savings: all approved products can go back in the production line. You can imagine our machines have recouped themselves within a couple of months.
The most common leak detection method is de vacuum decay test method, used to detect leaks in flexible and rigid packaging.
You can use leak testers for process control, ensuring quality by identifying minor leaks in packaged food items. The leak tester results will help you solve leakage problems, which are usually the result of sealing issues.
A leak test identifies leakages in packaging materials that cause the ingress of air or moisture into the packed items. It is a procedure used to determine whether or not an object or system is functioning within a specific leakage limit. Leaks occur if there is a defect, like a hole or crack, in an object, thus allowing the liquid or gas it is holding to flow out.
A leak, according to ASTM F17.2740, is a hole, void, or defect in the packaging material or mated components of a package capable of passing particulate, aerosols, liquid, or gas from one side (inside or outside) of the package to the other side contrary to intention.
Leak detection methods such as vacuum decay and bubble tests are widely utilized in pharmaceutical packaging. By conducting thorough leak tests, manufacturers can ensure container closure integrity testing, thereby safeguarding product safety. These techniques, facilitated by leak detectors, play a crucial role in maintaining the required quality standards and preventing potential product contamination or loss.
