Blow Molding: Upgraded Line of Leak Testers
PTI’s VeriCon leak testers now have bigger touchscreens, greater test sensitivity, and remote data-transfer capabilities.
Vericon 126+ in-line conveyor-mount version.
VeriCon 126+ trimmer-mount version.
PTI Packaging Technologies & Inspection has enhanced its entire VeriCon line of leak testers with several new features. The three most important are these:
• Larger color touchscreen interface for all models.
• Increased test sensitivity for low leakage rates; capable of detecting holes down to 0.008 in. (200 microns), depending on container shape, size, and line speed.
• Enhanced data-collection and data-transfer capability for remote monitoring. Real-time inspection data includes reject statistics and trends.
VeriCon leak testers are available in trimmer-mount or in-line conveyor-mount versions and in continuous-motion configurations. They offer multiple test stations and pressure or vacuum capability. Container sizes can be up to 5 gal.
PTI moved in June from Tuckahoe, N.Y., to larger facilicities in Hawthorne, N.Y. Phone numbers, website and email contacts remain the same.
