Leak testing system for aerosol cans
Ensure the integrity of your aerosol and metal packaging with a high-speed leak testing system that detects even the smallest leaks, enhancing quality control and compliance.

Detects Leaks in Aerosol and Steel Cans
The AERO DPSC from WILCO AG is an inline leak tester specifically designed for aerosol and steel cans, ensuring compliance with industry regulations such as ADR. It utilizes a continuous carousel system that clamps cans in a hanging position to identify potential leaks, detecting leak rates as minute as 3.2 x 10-2 mbar.l.s-1. Commonly applied in the aerosol and food industries, it handles up to 500 cans per minute, making it ideal for high-speed production environments. Its robust design ensures longevity and integrates seamlessly into existing lines with automated format changeovers. The system is non-destructive, serving as an alternative to traditional water bath testing, and is available with software that compensates for fluctuating operating conditions, enhancing its reliability and precision.
