The Z340 Semi Automatic Aerosol Can Coating Analyser
The Z307 Semi-Automatic Bench Top Axial Load Gauge determines the maximum axial load force that can be applied prior to container failure within a short cycle time.
The test will begin once top tooling has detected the start of the axial load via the high accuracy mapped load cell, gathering accurate data throughout the inspection routine. Once the can sample has reached the buckle/column strength maximum achievable load, the result will be shown on screen and exported as necessary.
Measurement Features
Axial Load – The maximum force at which the container fails/collapses | Accuracy: +/- 10 N
Technical Specification
Gauge Features
The Z341 Manual Coating Analyser has been developed to give fast and accurate measurement of the internal lacquer, sprayed during today’s 2 piece can manufacturing process
By cutting the can to give suitable access, the dome area of the can is able to be checked by the system.
No “lacquer panels” are required for calibration and measurement data can be exported via on board USB or LAN ports to your factory data acquisition systems where required.

Using Industry standard database platforms, SPCXplorer is suitable for single station application, through to full factory database-centric network installations.Statistical Process Control (SPC) software is essential for manufacturing wide quality monitoring.
Upgrade Existing SPC Software Systems
With our database migration tools and backward compatibility architecture, users of the previous generation Repro2000 statistical process control software can upgrade with minimal disruption to their daily operation.
Designed with the needs of shop-floor data collection in mind, SPCXplorer can be interfaced to a large variety of manual instrumentation via RS232 connectivity, or for more complex gauging systems, can process bespoke ASCII data files via Ethernet.
The Reporting module ensures the data is displayed in the right format for your quality reviews, and with its simple and powerful administration functions, access to the management and configuration areas of the software is password protected for assured security.
Reliable & Professional SPC Software for Industry – SPCXplorer
Statistical Process Control software helps prevent business relative issues before they occur, via the use of data driven quality analysis. This enables you to monitor your production process by utilising visual diagrams such as Control Charts, customers have the ability to create specific control boundaries for all of their process monitoring needs. SPCXplorer detects manufacturing issues before they occur.
Using statistical process control software and knowing how efficient your processes are running, helps give the operators valuable information on whether to instigate or adjust their manufacturing processes or whether to carry on with the current process.

The Beverage Can Master supplied with your gauge is extremely important for the reliability of your measurement results.
As the original equipment manufacturer Torus Measurement Systems recommends that your Master is re-calibrated annually to continually assess for wear, damage and integrity. This ensures your product quality is never compromised.
Torus are a leading manufacturer in gauging systems for the packaging industry worldwide, with the expertise to understand the functionality and critical features of your master.
Torus Measurement Systems Master Calibration Service offers:
The Z703 works together and compliments Torus’ Z340 Coating Analyser range to provide base rim coat distribution inspection analysis and quickly identifies the application of UV base rim coat presence, indicating in split seconds a percentage coverage based on parameters set within Torus’ GaugeXplorer software. The Iive report instantly denotes if the rim coat has either been under applied or damaged.

The Z334 is a bench-top system for cup height analysis.
Each cup to be inspected is manually loaded into the gauge and the measurement cycle is initiated via the PC running the TMS GaugeXplorer measurement and machine control software. Setup screens allow the operator to enter traceability information and select the number of samples and heads from which data is to be collected.
Once the component has been measured, the operator may visually accept or reject the software’s calculated ‘peaks’ and ‘troughs’, which will be used in the Earring calculations.
