In this video, Permeation Application Scientist, Mike Kragness, discusses the importance of whole package testing and how AMETEK MOCON offers solutions to ensure package integrity throughout a product's shelf life.
In particular, we discuss the Flexible Pouch Test Cartridge. This is a specially designed cartridge that clamps through the test pouch for a clean seal. The benefits of this design are:
• No need for epoxy, packages mount and seal directly to the cartridge
• The cartridge holds pouches vertically to allow a wide range of sizes
• Incorporates Truseal® technology to minimize leakage
• The reusable fixture reduces cost, reduces sample prep time, and improves testing accuracy and repeatability
