Mecmesin new motorised system at Interpack

Incorporating enhancements to its design and functionality, the MultiTest-d, when combined with a digital force gauge, will form an ideal entry-level motorised test system for professionals who wish to evaluate quality control parameters of their packaging products in tension and compression.

The new system will retain the robust high quality design of the existing MultiTest motorised test range and continue to offer customers a cost-effective measurement solution through a superb range of added benefits. These include improved potentiometer control enabling greater precision and fine-tuning of critical test variables such as speed; the addition of displacement as a test measurement parameter, and an enlarged LCD screen offering clear and comprehensive test settings and result information.

One of the most significant advantages of the new system is the ability to run continuous test cycles. Customers needing to perform multiple tests on a sample and requiring minimal set-up time can now automate them to run continuously, thereby removing the need for an operator to initiate every test manually. The system is therefore an ideal solution for packaging professionals who wish to perform repetitive tests to assess the stress properties of their products.

The expansion of the data-transfer capabilities means that quality managers can now rely on the new MultiTest-d to plot the graph of force and deflection to analyse essential physical parameters such as co-efficient of friction, peeling forces and tensile strength.

Visitors to the Mecmesin stand will be able to see first hand the improvements and benefits of using this advanced motorised test system in a day-to-day working environment before its official launch in June.
