Food Packaging Quality Control

An article by admin    No Comments

The purpose of food package testing is to check whether the packaging materials are processable, and to guarantee the package can protect the food. Protection includes to guarantee the shelflife of the food, the appearance of the package to attrack the consumers’ attention, and to gurantee the packages’ properties during full transmportation. To meet the demands for food packaging testing, and to help the food companies and food packaging companies on quality testing of the food packaging testing, Labthink Instruments Co. Ltd. Integrates and introduces all relative food package testing items in this article.

Food Package Testing Instruments for Strength

Strength testing includes index testing like material tensile strength testing, peeling strength testing of laminated films, hot seal strength testing, tearing strength and pouch resistance testing. Tensile strength is the maximum strength value just before the material is broken. Peeling strength testing, also called complex strength testing, tests the bonding strength between the layers of laminated films. Hot seal strength testing is to test the strength of the seals. Pouch resistance is the index evaluating the anti-puncture strength of the package against rigid material. Relevant testing instruments are as follows:

A. XLW Series Auto Tensile Testers: are for the peeling, tensile, heal seal and tearing tests of films, laminated films, adhesives and tapes. This series of products includes XLW，XLW（B），XLW（M），XLW（PC）and XLW（G）.

B. HST-H3 Heat Seal Tester: is for the specimen preparation for the heat seal strength testing of films. Testing pressure, temperature and time are adjustable.

C. RTD-R2 Gradation Heat-Sealing Instrument: is the luxury model for heat seal strenght. It can prepare five groups of plastic films or flexible packaging laminated films simultaneously under five independent temperatures; and seal five groups of specimen simultaneously and efficiently.
