Test the Seal Integrity of Carbonated Containers with a Secure Seal Tester

Testing the seal integrity of carbonated containers is an essential part of producing quality products for the customers. The Secure Seal test is one of the most important quality tests carried out at carbonated bottle testing facilities to assure the leak integrity of bottle caps. To evaluate the applications of caps or lids of glass and bottle containers, this testing technique is carried out in an incredibly systematic manner. It is essential to utilize highly standardized and high-quality testing equipment to execute the secure seal test on bottles in a very effective manner. Presto manufactures a high-quality secure seal tester – NXG model that is helpful in testing the seal integrity on glass and plastic beverage containers.

This seal tester for bottles has been created to meet the unique requirements of sealed carbonated beverage containers with aluminum roll-on, twist crowns, or plastic tops. To assure the quality of these items, bottle leak testing will be carried out with this quality testing equipment. Here, we will be going to discuss how you can save your carbonated drink container/bottle from getting leaked with a secure seal tester. 

Why you should test the seal integrity of carbonated containers?

Packaging carbonated beverages into glass or PET containers requires exact knowledge and expertise in machine configurations. When a carbonated drink is stored then the manufacturer must ensure that the container must be properly sealed and then pressurized. To transfer a carbonated beverage from a storage tank into a container, the container must first be sealed and then pressurized. Thus, testing the seal integrity of carbonated bottles will help you to ensure that the bottles delivered will be free of any errors.

The experts at Presto have designed a secure seal testing instrument that will offer you extremely precise results. With its stringent industrial testing environment, it will aid in the prevention of leaks in PET bottles. When you conduct a secure seal test for PET/ glass bottles with the help of the Presto secure seal tester, then you will be able to avoid any damage or spillage of product inside these bottles.

The secure seal test procedure is easy to conduct and saves your carbonated bottles from getting damaged while shipping and transportation. Now, let us discuss the main purpose of using the Presto secure seal tester for your carbonated bottle manufacturing industry.

Purpose of using Presto secure seal tester for your carbonated bottle manufacturing unit

Presto offers a complete range of lab testing instruments that help you to improve the quality of products delivered to your customers. One of the highly efficient testing instruments is a secure seal tester that is made with the purpose of testing the seal integrity of PET/glass bottles.

For delivering a perfectly manufactured carbonated bottle, many factors need to be taken care of. One such factor is the seal integrity of bottles. A broken bottle seal will not only lead to product disruption but also lead to rejections from your customers.

The secure seal tester is used in bottle manufacturing units to guarantee that the seal applied on the bottle together with the caps is intact and can withstand the pressure for a specified period of time. PET bottles are used to package a variety of items, the majority of which are liquids that can readily spill or leak from the packaging. To avoid this, make sure the seal on the PET bottles is absolutely intact so that it can withstand the pressure provided to it by the contents packed within during storage and transit.

Now, let us focus on the features and technical specifications of this lab testing instrument.

Features of Presto secure seal tester (NXG)

The assurance of having a secure seal and trust in material consistency is used in quality control techniques for evaluating seals during production.

Presto's secure seal tester NXG model is a popular testing tool for determining the strength of caps and twist crowns present in bottles. A compressor is used to fill the test sample with a gaseous mixture. The cap is then carefully tightened to ensure there is no gas leaking.
