This equipment is suitable for :

1) Dynamic Load Test (Destructive Mode)
Test Type : Press till failure
In this method, the sample is compressed until the pouch bursts.
2) Dynamic Load Test (Non-Destructive Mode)
Test Type : Press till Load Setpoint. Then release.
In this method, the sample is compressed only upto the Load setpoint Pre-Determined by the user. If the
pouch bursts before the set-point is achieved, then this becomes a destructive test. The machine
automatically stops on sample failure or when the preset-load is achieved. Whichever is earlier.
3) Static Load Test (Non-Destructive Mode) (Also known as : Pressure Decay Test)
Test Type : Press till Load Setpoint. Hold till Time Setpoint. The release.
In this method, the sample is compressed upto the Load setpoint Pre-Determined by the user. Then, the force
is held on the pouch for some time (predetermined by the user). After the times elapses, the machine
automatically returns to the original position. If the pouch bursts before the set-point is achieved, then this
becomes a destructive test. The machine automatically stops on sample failure or when the preset-load-time
is achieved. Whichever is earlier.
Note : The Static Load Test is done as per test specifications detailed in point # 4.1.2 of Chapter 4 of the
“Flexible Retort Pouch Defects – Identification & Classification” by the Canadian Food Inspection Agency.
