    Z307 AUTOMATIC BEVERAGE CAN DESTRUCTIVE GAUGE

    Z307 AUTOMATIC BEVERAGE CAN DESTRUCTIVE GAUGE

    Torus’ Z307 series defines the standard for destructive testing and inspection

    Specifications

    The Z307 Automatic Axial Load module determines the maximum axial load force that can be applied prior to container failure, within a short cycle time.

    The Z308 Dome Growth/Dome Reversal module provides detailed information about the overall change in length of the can when pressure is applied and subsequently removed. The system has programmable internal pressure capability to meet each customer’s exact needs for dome growth. After dome growth, the can sample can be reversed to find the maximum pressure the sample is able to withstand before failure (dome reversal)
