From the food industry to the pharmaceutical industry, PET bottles are widely used in different industries to store and deliver products accurately. In order to maintain a high level of quality control, it is important for manufacturers to perform vacuum leak testing on their PET bottles. Vacuum leak testing is a process that helps manufacturers to conduct quality tests on the materials with ease. We at Presto have designed a high-quality vacuum leak tester that is used to evaluate and assess any sort of vacuum leaks present in the product. This highly advanced lab testing instrument will help to test the vacuum leak integrity of the product and ensure that quality products will be delivered to the customers with ease. Here in this blog, we are going to provide you with brief information about vacuum leak testers for PET bottles. We will also discuss the working of this high-quality lab testing equipment. But first, let us focus on the vacuum leak tester and its role in the PET bottle industry.

Importance of testing PET bottles against vacuum leaks

The creation of vacuum leaks in PET bottles will severely affect their quality. By conducting vacuum leak tests in PET bottles, one can easily ensure that quality products will be delivered to the customers.

Without conducting this quality control test, product quality would suffer and customers would be at risk. By using this type of testing, manufacturers can ensure that their products are of the highest quality and meet all safety standards. By conducting vacuum leak tests on the bottles, one can rest assured that quality products will be delivered to the customers. Thus, we at Presto have designed a high-quality lab testing instrument known as a vacuum leak tester for PET bottles designed by the experts at Presto.

Working of Presto vacuum leak tester for PET bottles

If you want to ensure that your PET bottles are free from any vacuum leaks, then it is important to conduct a vacuum leak test on the products. To make it easy for PET bottle manufacturers to perform vacuum leak tests on the products with ease, we have mentioned some easy-to-follow steps:

Firstly, turn the machine ON and plug it into the main socket. Set the test duration timing on the digital timer.
After that place the specimen accurately, by removing the desiccator cover and placing the sample bottle inside the test cavity in an inverted position.
After placement of the sample bottle, put the cover back on the desiccator. Make sure that the cover is properly placed on the gasket.
When all the above steps will be followed, then you can easily commence the test. In this way, the vacuum leak tester for PET bottles works.
