Assess the uniformity in PET bottle walls with Magnamike 8600

Every type of industry has its own packaging requirements and needs. The PET bottle is one of the most commonly used packaging materials due to its characteristics. These bottles are lightweight and durable, which makes them the top choice for manufacturers to deliver products accurately to customers. Testing every single aspect of these PET products like durability, wall-thickness, closures and much more is necessary for delivering quality. Thus, to make it easy for PET bottle manufacturers to conduct the wall thickness test on PET bottles, we have come up with Magnamike 8600 wall thickness gauge. This is one of the amazing lab testing instruments that is used to test the wall thickness of non-ferrous materials like glass, preforms, plastics, and PET products. This high-quality testing equipment is used to make repeatable and reliable measurements and determine the wall thickness of the product.

Perform accurate wall thickness tests on PET products with a wall thickness gauge
