RQ868-A Medical Material Heat Seal Strength Tester

Specifications:

The tester is designed and manufactured according to EN868-5 “Packaging materials and systems for medical devices which are to be sterilized—Part 5: Heat and self-sealable pouches and reels of paper and plastic film construction—Requirements and test methods”. It is used for determining the strength of the heat seal joint for pouches and reel material.
Itconsists of PLC, touch screen, transmission unit, step motor, sensor, jaw, printer, etc. Operators can choose the needed option, set each parameter, and start the test on the touch screen. The tester can record the maximum and average heat seal strength and from the curve of the heat seal strentgth of each test piece in N per 15mm width. The built-in printer can print the test report.
Peeling force: 0~50N; resolution: 0.01N; error: within ±2% of reading
Separation rate: 200mm/min, 250 mm/min and 300mm/min; error: within ±5% of reading

Product Specification

A medical material heat seal strength tester is a device used to evaluate the strength and integrity of heat-sealed packaging used in the medical industry. This type of tester ensures that the seals on medical packaging materials, such as pouches or trays, are strong enough to maintain the sterility and security of the contents.The testing process for heat seal strength using a medical material heat seal strength tester typically involves the following steps:Preparing the samples: Cut or prepare samples of the heat-sealed medical packaging material, ensuring they include the seal area.Conditioning the samples: Condition the samples according to the specified requirements, such as temperature and humidity, to ensure consistency in testing conditions.Placing the sample in the tester: Position the sample securely within the heat seal strength tester. This is usually achieved by clamping or holding the edges of the sample in place.Applying force: The tester applies a controlled force to the sealed area, either by pulling the two sides of the seal apart or exerting pressure on the seal. This force simulates the stresses the seal may experience during transport or handling.Analyzing the results: The tester measures the force required to separate or break the seal and records the result. This measurement indicates the seal strength and determines if it meets the specified requirements. Some testers may also provide data on other seal characteristics, such as peel strength or burst strength.The instructions for operating a medical material heat seal strength tester may vary depending on the manufacturer and model. It is important to refer to the user manual or guidelines provided by the manufacturer for accurate testing procedures and interpretation of results.By using a medical material heat seal strength tester, manufacturers in the medical industry can ensure the integrity of their packaging and comply with regulatory standards, such as those set by organizations like the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) or International Organization for Standardization (ISO). This helps guarantee the safety, sterility, and effectiveness of medical products and devices.
