continuous leak tester for aerosol cans
Inspecting metal packaging such as aerosol cans requires precise and reliable systems. Ensuring that these containers are leak-proof is crucial, especially under stringent industry guidelines. Faulty cans can lead to safety hazards and product recalls.
Detect leaks in aerosol cans efficiently
The AERO DPSC is a system designed for leak testing empty aerosol cans in compliance with current ADR guidelines. An in-feed star wheel places the cans onto a continuous carrousel, where a clamping device seals them inside the test chamber. This position helps identify potential seam leaks. The system can test up to 500 cans per minute and is capable of detecting leak rates of 3.2 × 10^-2 mbar.l.s^-1. The design allows easy integration into existing production lines and features automatic software adjustments for external variables like temperature changes. This high test pressure ensures the solution meets UN specifications, providing a reliable and economical inspection method. Wilco, the supplier, specializes in non-destructive testing systems for the food and aerosol industries.
