Packaging is one of the most important aspects of any product as it is responsible for keeping the product intact and of good quality throughout their journey from Factory, to outlets and then customers. If the packaging is of subpar quality or it has leakages, it can cause deterioration of the product quality. This is the reason; the manufacturers need to test the packaging materials for every aspect so that there is no chance of any quality or manufacturing defect that can impact the product inside that packaging. One such aspect of packaging containers is leakages. To test whether the packaging container is leakage free or not, manufacturers need to use the best testing instruments. The Vacuum leak tester offered by Pacorr is a highly precise and efficient testing instrument that can be used for testing the integrity of packaging containers before use.

How is vacuum leak testing done?
Vacuum leak testing is done with the help of an apparatus called vacuum leak tester. This instrument is used for creating a vacuum around the test specimen. To commence the testing procedure, the test specimen is placed in the apparatus. When the instrument is turned on, it creates a vacuum around the specimen. This causes a creation of negative pressure around the specimen. When there is negative pressure and there is a leakage in the container or packaging specimen, then it is compressed as the air inside the container escapes it. If there is no leakage in the container, it remains intact.

Why is vacuum leak testing important?
Vacuum leak test is extremely important for the packaging industry as it helps in determining the minor leaks present in the packaging containers and pouches and hence it helps in providing the quality of packaging for products and keeping them intact. It also helps in ensuring that the seal integrity of the packaging is intact. By testing the packaging materials for leaks, the manufacturers can amend their manufacturing process to ensure that the defects are not repeated. This also helps the manufacturers of the products to ensure that the packaging they are using for their products is of best quality and is capable of providing the best level of protection to their products during the transportation and storage.
