Testing
Our field-tested analysis instruments lead to economical packaging solutions for loose bulk materials. They allow process-relevant product properties to be measured and recorded, which result in accurate material classification and machinery selection.
Technologies available:
Our BULK DENSITY TESTER® makes determining the bulk density of powder or granular-type materials affordable and convenient. The sample product is measured using a precisely specified volume and then weighed by the customer.
The TRICKLE TESTER® is used to determine a loose material’s pour ability. This tester checks the time needed for a material to flow from a discharge hopper and its pouring characteristic.
The HAVER DE-AERATION TESTER® determines the aeration and de-aeration characteristics of powder, micro-granular, gritty and blended products. In addition, the tester can assess the product’s air flow-through resistance attributes.
The AIRFLOW TESTER® determines the air escape capability of a bag and thus the filling behavior of the entire bag, including all paper and plastic layers and their glued areas. By including all components that make up the bag – especially the glued areas – a complete assessment is the result.
Using the BIG GURLEY®, the air permeability of packaging materials can be measured and assessed. Continuous quality monitoring of bag material is important during bag manufacturing.
The BAG DROP TESTER®, drop test bags filled with products to test quality and toughness. Filled bags weighing up to 50 lbs. are elevated to an adjustable height and then dropped either flat or standing up.
