Film Heat Shrinkage Tester QualiShrink-D1

Introducing the Film Heat Shrinkage Tester QualiShrink-D1, a cutting-edge device designed to assess a range of heat shrinkage characteristics in films through the innovative air heating (air bath) method. This tester is ideal for evaluating heat-shrinkable films made from polyethylene, ethylene copolymers, and their blends, commonly used in applications such as beverage labels, bundled packaging, sausage casings, outer packaging for household chemical products, and cigarette box wrapping.
This advanced film heat shrinkage tester provides precise measurements of thermal shrinkage force, cold shrinkage force, shrinkage rate, and shrinkage time, among other properties, offering comprehensive insights into the performance of plastic films during thermal contraction.
The test results yield a wealth of data enabling a thorough evaluation of film shrinkage performance, facilitating research and development efforts for various materials used in heat-shrinkable films. This ensures the consistent performance of heat-shrinkable films across different materials, meeting the diverse requirements of various industries.
Qualitest offers the ability to examine crucial thermal shrinkage properties of film products. Unlike traditional methods using ovens or oil baths, which only measure the heat shrinkage rate, our latest model, the Film Heat Shrinkage Tester QualiShrink-D1, provides a more comprehensive evaluation of thermal shrinkage performance, boasting ease of use, environmental friendliness, high data accuracy, and extensive test results tailored to your needs.
Standard:
ISO 14616-1997, DIN 53369-1976
Testing Principle:
Our Film Heat Shrinkage Tester QualiShrink-D1 operates on the principle of air heating, where the tested sample is connected to both a tension sensor and a displacement sensor. Once the maximum shrinkage force is achieved, the sample is then exposed to an external testing environment with an ambient temperature of 23°C ± 2°C for cooling. Throughout this process, the instrument continuously monitors and records the reference temperature, shrinkage force, and displacement. These recorded data points serve to determine the optimal shrinkage conditions for the film.
Application:
- Beverage Film Packaging
- Sausage Shrink Wrap
- Film Packaging
- Daily Chemical Film Packaging
- Tableware Packaging Film
- Parafilm
