The B304 Top Load & Volume Gauge provides the worlds first in-line combination test for measuring vertical strength and capacity. Data can be presented numerically and graphically, creating a Max Load Vs Deflection signature as the 'live' bottle force is measured. A traceable batch setup function is provided for further blow moulder to cavity analysis. The test specifics adhere to ASTM D2659 Standards and offer selectable units of Force, adjustable compression speeds with a simple windows based programmable user interface.
The proven contact measurement technology ensures accurate, reliable and traceable measurement 24/7.
