Applications
Film Shrinkage Tester is used to shrinkage property for film under different temperature after checking size change, which is widely sued in industries of testing institutes, package, film, foods, etc.
Precision and Reliability in Film Shrinkage TestingThis tester guarantees precise measurement of film shrinkage with its microprocessor-controlled digital temperature system and an accuracy of 0.5C. The programmable timer and sturdy sample clamps make every test highly reproducible and reliable. Its construction from high-quality stainless steel ensures durability and resistance to corrosion.
User-Friendly and Safe OperationBuilt for optimal user safety, the Film Shrinkage Tester incorporates over-temperature and electrical leakage protection. Designed as a semi-automatic bench-top device with an easy-to-read digital display, it provides seamless control. The instrument only requires a single phase 220 V AC supply, making it suitable for most laboratory settings.
Compliant with International StandardsAdhering to ASTM D2732 and ISO 14616 protocols, the tester ensures reliable and standardized results. Its design meets stringent quality benchmarks, making it a valuable asset for manufacturers, trading houses, and quality control laboratories engaged in film packaging material assessment.
FAQs of Film Shrinkage Tester:
Q: How does the Film Shrinkage Tester measure film shrinkage?
A: The tester exposes a film sample to temperatures ranging from room temperature to 200C in a water bath, controlled by a precise PID system. The programmable timer allows scheduled testing cycles, and the resulting shrinkage is recorded using the digital display for accuracy.
Q: What safety features are included in the Film Shrinkage Tester?
A: It is equipped with over-temperature protection to prevent heating beyond set limits, and electrical leakage protection to safeguard users during operation.
Q: When should I use this tester for packaging films?
A: Use this device when you need to determine the shrinkage properties of thin film plastic packaging, especially prior to production, during research, or for quality assurance in compliance with ASTM D2732 or ISO 14616.
Q: Where can this instrument be installed and used?
A: The Film Shrinkage Tester is designed for bench-top installation in laboratories, manufacturing facilities, and quality control departments operating within 1040C and less than 85% relative humidity.
Q: What process does the tester follow during operation?
A: A sample film is clamped in the holder, submerged in the water bath, and heated to the set temperature using the microprocessor-based controller. The programmable timer regulates the duration of exposure, after which the shrinkage is measured.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this Film Shrinkage Tester?
A: Users benefit from accurate, repeatable results, user safety, compliance with international standards, and robust construction that ensures long-term reliability and minimal maintenance.
Q: Is the Film Shrinkage Tester compatible with international testing standards?
A: Yes, it complies with ASTM D2732 and ISO 14616 or equivalent standards, ensuring results are globally recognized and comparable.
