Determine Seal Performance of Plastic Packaging

Determine Seal Performance of Plastic Packaging

Plastic packaging is used by many manufacturers as it protects food from spoiling. Food gets wasted if they are not packaged properly. Plastic packaging allows food to travel long distances and stay longer on the shelves. Plastics are ideal packaging materials for a variety of modern requirements. Without plastic packaging, it is difficult to transport and use a wide range of products.

Plastic packaging is used to meet a variety of needs for consumer goods. Plastic packaging in general is strong and light weight. The use of plastic packaging in Food and Beverages Industry plays a crucial role in maintaining the freshness and hygiene of the product. Due to non-reactive properties of plastic packings, it is used to make sachets, pouches, bags and so forth. It is important to test the quality of the packet that is being used. To choose that what packaging can be used over the other, is difficult as sachet is used to maintain hygiene and keep the content intact.

Laboratory Heat sealers are used to join two products out of which one is a thermoplastic film used in different applications such as packaging, medical, and so forth. Electronic goods are sealed to protect the quality of the electronic goods from external factors so that the display screen and other parts remain intact. Sealing is done on other sealed thermoplastic assemblies or devices where ultrasonic welding is not a good option due to assembly considerations.

Plastic films help manufacturers to meet a variety of market demands. Heat sealers are also useful in food industries used in thermoplastic films, laminates, foils and so forth. Food processing industries use seal packets of food products efficiently to ensure the hygiene and freshness of the product.

A heat sealer used for sealing packets is of two types, one is for flexible packings and second is used for sleeve wrapping. Sealing can be done by melting the plastic that forms a uniform bond to create the seal. Second, when there is sealant on one side of the material to be bonded together. The heat of the sealer activates the sealant to form the bond together.

Pacorr is renowned manufacturers and supplier that provide the best precision laboratory heat sealers instruments to the industries. The manufacturers of any product need to provide the best safety to their products and packaging of the materials. Heat sealers measure seal performance of composite films and plastic films for packaging food products such as milk powder, washing powder and so forth. It conforms to ASTM standards responsible for designing heat sealers.
