ASTM D3078 -Standard Testing Instruments

ASTM D3078 details the bubble emission technique of leak detection in flexible packaging under vacuum conditions. The test is done by placing the package in a vacuum chamber filled with water, and apparent bubbles of air tell about the defects in the seal or packaging. The process assists manufacturers in detecting the leaks that could compromise the safety of the product, shelf life, and packaging integrity. It finds extensive application in the food, pharmaceutical, medical, and packaging industries to check quality. Presto Laboratories offers advanced vacuum leak testers developed for ASTM D3078 testing with accurate vacuum control and easy operation. The equipment helps industries examine seal performance and detect packaging leakage before product distribution.
