Torque testers 

In the food and beverage industry, the opening torque of bottles and other containers with twist-off closures is an important quality parameter and vital for customer satisfaction.

The Gold Bottle was designed to verify the calibration and operational repeatability of manual or automatic torque tester for beverage closures. The bottle is constructed using high energy permanent magnets and heavy duty ball bearings to insure the long term durability of this calibration standard. Each Gold Bottle is labeled with its exact torque rating and is supplied with a certificate of calibration and traceability.

In the food & beverage industry, the opening torque of bottles and other containers with twist-off closures is an important quality parameter and vital for customer satisfaction.The TorqTraQ® device uses specifically designed chucks which positively engage the closure. This unique design eliminates the variability of manually gripping closures and improves measurement reliability.The TorqTraQ® device serves both of these needs in an easy-to-use, cost effective, and reliable…

The torque tester determines the precise torque force required to open and close any kind of threaded lid. This instrument has an excellent reliability due to its combined high accuracy and rugged mechanical construction.

For the beverage filler and the closure manufacturer, the opening performance of twist closures is an important quality parameter. The OPT 180 opens a closure quickly which can be repeated on the original thread. Meanwhile, it records torque, rotation angle, vertical movement, pressure and temperature. The OPT doesn’t exert any vertical force on the closure, making a blow-off-effect clearly visible. The recorded data is transferred to a PC…

The measurement of the opening torques of twist tops isan important part of quality assurance within the drinks industry. Regular use of the TS 1000 enables the user to adhere to the company quality regulations in an uncomplicated way. Because of its unique universal top gripper the correct connection of the measuring sensor to the bottle top is guarantied without outside influences caused by personnel.

The bottle (container) is fitted to the clamp mechanism and is opened automatically. Meanwhile, the reactive torque is monitored and afterwards the peak value and torque curve will be displayed and stored. There is also the possibility of measuring the closing torque, seal break and overtorque. Closures are hold by customized closure chucks with constand topload during the complete…

The container is fitted to the clamp mechanism and manually opened. Meanwhile, the reactive torque is monitored and its peak value displayed and stored afterwards. Measuring the closing torque is also possible. The system is equipped with the RS 232 for easy data download to the PC.
