SST-3XS Seal Strength Tester
The SST-3XS seal strength tester measures tensile and compression forces such as seal strength of heat seals in plastic films. Tests are performed to recognised international standards E.G. ASTM F88, I SO EN 868-5.
Touch Screen Precision Seal Strength / Tensile / Compression Tester for determining mechanical properties of packaging materials including plastics, paper and board.
Producing consistent and repeatable packaging for your product not only ensures minimal handling damage, but is vital in delivering a consistent brand to your customers. Precise measurement of the mechanical properties of materials and final packages is one way to ensure consistency and reduce material costs.
Accuracy and versatility in testing is vital, and the SST-3XS provides the technology and range of options to deliver for your specific needs. An intelligent controller and touch screen user interface stores multiple settings for later recall, and controls settings to ensure calibrated accuracy to international testing standards.
