Get Best Safety of Print on Labels with Scuff Resistance Tester

The purchase, handling, and control of printed packaging materials shall be attended with care. The storage of these products should be done under secure conditions. The transportation of packaged products needs to be done with care which needs a separate enclosed container to avoid abrasion. Particular attention must be taken to minimize the risk of fading up printed labels so that the product does not lose its identity. Printed and embossed information on packaging materials needs to be handled carefully and should be resistant to fading or erasing.

Scuff Resistance TesterManufacturers are using smart machines with cutting-edge technology to ensure high quality of packaging. It is important to not only test the strength of the packet but also other properties like seal, its label etc. Labels carry necessary information about the product; therefore, it must be ensured that it reaches its destination in intact.

One of the major testing procedures to test the print quality of packaging products is scuffing resistance test. Scuffing refers to the erosion caused by rubbing the material against a rough surface. The test procedure checks with damage to print quality due to rubbing of two surfaces. The method of scuff resistance test checks the sample by rubbing two printed surfaces facing each other. The samples are treated with a specific number of rotations recorded at the point the films are losing their prints.

The scuff resistance tester is an efficient machine that simulates the rubbing conditions faced by the packaging materials during transportation. We offers precise instrument in accordance with the ASTM standards for scuff test. Hence, it gives the most accurate test results for the manufacturers that comply with best quality of the products. The samples are secured between the clamps and the strokes are simulated to replicate the actual rubbing conditions. The number of strokes that have been applied on the packet is recorded on the digital screen. Manufacturers of these packets can determine the actual number of rubbing strokes that can deface the materials and hence the quality test is attained.

The instrument offered by Pacorr is made up of high-grade materials that add up to the longevity of the instrument. The Price of the instrument is incomparable and affordable for its customers. It is a popular instrument among manufacturers in packaging industries because of its great ergonomics and accuracy of test results.
