Packaging plays a crucial role in protecting products from damage during transportation and storage. But have you ever wondered how the adhesive strength of packaging tape is tested to ensure that it won't fail when it's needed most? This can be done with the use of the right lab testing instrument known as peel/seal/bond/adhesion tester designed by the experts at Presto.

This is one of the high-quality lab testing instruments that provide accurate information about the peel strength of adhesives and ensure that the product will not fail. Manufacturers can make informed decisions about selecting the most appropriate adhesive for their specific packaging requirements.
 
In this blog, we are going to discuss brief information about the Presto peel adhesion tester and how this quality lab testing instrument is useful in assessing the peel ability of packaging materials. We will also discuss brief information about the peel adhesion test. So, let us get started!
 

Introduction to Peel Adhesion Test

The peel adhesion test is used to determine the strength of the bond between two materials. This test is commonly used in the packaging industry to ensure that products are properly sealed and will not come apart during shipping or handling.
 
This peel strength test helps manufacturers in ensuring that quality materials will be delivered to customers. To perform a peel adhesion test, a sample of the material to be tested is placed on a testing machine and a specified force will be applied to break the bond between the two materials.
 
By using a Presto peel adhesion tester, one can easily calculate the peel strength of adhesives. There are several factors that can affect the results of a peel adhesion test, including the type of material being tested, the surface preparation of the materials, and the adhesive used. It is important to carefully control these variables when performing this test to ensure accurate results.
 
Now, let us discuss a brief about Presto peel/seal/bond/adhesion tester.
