Give your Plastic Films Packaging Best Strength with Dart Impact Tester

In the packaging world the plastic films are widely used for packaging of a variety of products and materials. They are used for packaging of food products, chemicals and many more. The packaging for the products requires to be strong enough that it could support the safety of the products all rimes during handling, transportation to warehouses as well as clients. The manufacturers also need to understand the importance of the packaging in keeping their products safe and quality intact. The manufacturers must opt for a packaging for their products that is capable of surviving the harsh and deep impacts that they may have to bear when they are used. To test the strength of the plastic films, an instrument called as dart impact tester is used.

Dart Impact Test
The dart impact test is a quality testing procedure that is utilized by the packaging manufacturers to test the quality as well as the strength of the plastic films that are used for packaging of different products. In addition to that, this test also helps in studying the behavior of the plastic films when they are subject to an impact from a dart like structure. The instrument used for the testing is called dart drop impact tester. In this test, the test sample of the plastic films being tested is used and stretched using a vacuum. Once the specimen is in place, there is a freely falling dart that falls upon the specimen and the impact of the dart is studied on the plastic film. In order to ensure perfect free fall of the dart, an electromagnetic hold/release mechanism is used. This is also useful for the manufacturers in analyzing the elasticity of the films to some extent.

There are two different methods used for dart impact test namely Dart impact test-Method A and Method B. Both the methods are conducted in the manner just the size of the head of the dart is changed.

Pacorr is a leading name among manufacturers and suppliers of the Dart Impact testing machine that is extensively used by the packaging manufacturers to test the quality as well as the strength of the plastic films they use in their industry for manufacturing packaging bags. The instrument comes with two different dart head sizes that are capable for performing the dart drop impact test for both Method A and Method B.
