Testing Capabilities

  • Removal Torque: With a single keystroke, the cap can be removed and reapplied to a designated torque level. The measured values can be stored in the analyzer’s memory.
  • Incremental Torque: The proper installation of a cap with an internal seal can be verified with this test.
  • Bridge Torque: This test determines the rotational force required to break the bands that bridge the gap between the cap and the tamper-evident band on either an aluminum roll-on cap or a plastic cap.
  • Reverse Ratchet Torque: This measures the torque required to rotate a child-resistant cap in its free-running state.
  • ROPP (Roll on Pilfer Proof): This test is designed to measure the torque required to open, break the bridges, and then strip the threads on a Roll on Pilfer Proof cap.
  • Close: This selection enables the system to be used as a capping device. When used in this mode the actual closing value can be saved and outputted.
  • Strip: The strip test is designed to measure the torque required to drive the cap in a clockwise direction (close) in order to break the tamper-evident band and remove the cap completely from the product.
