Cap torque tester
To control and ensure the capping process, it’s necessary to run periodic audits on the assembled caps. A cap torque tester is used to measure the opening torque of a bottle or container, to control the quality of the cap's clamp during manufacture.
The ANDITORK FIRST II is specially designed to measure opening and closing torques on bottle and container caps. With a capacity of 1.5Nm, 6Nm or 12Nm and simple to use, it's the perfect auditing equipment for a production environment. Torque readings can be made by tightening or loosening.
A production-oriented, robust design
ANDILOG's cap torque tester is supplied with a grip plate that holds products ranging from 10mm to 200mm in diameter. The rubber-coated gripping fingers can be adjusted quickly, using a travel knob, and are suitable for effectively gripping a broad range of container shapes and sizes.
The bottle support plate of the ANDITORK FIRST II is made of stainless steel. It helps guarantee maximum service life and facilitates cleaning, in case of bottle contents overflow during testing.
Quick Start
The ANDITORK FIRST II's user interface has been simplified to facilitate handling and ensure ease of use. You can navigate the menu using only 3 keys:
- ARROWS : Changes the order of the values displayed on the screen (instantaneous and maximum value clockwise/anticlockwise)
- U : Change the unit of measurement: Nm, lbin, mNm, lbft or kgcm
- ZERO : Tares the device
With its large digital display, the ANDITORK FIRST II allows operators to read it easily and reduces the number of reading errors commonly associated with analog testers. The screen is designed to withstand splashes and can be easily cleaned.
Great flexibility
Thanks to its high accuracy internal transducer the ANDITORK FIRST II is ideal for performing repeatable torque measurements over a wide range of bottle sizes.
The bottle control platen has an adjustable diameter for samples ranging between 10mm and 200mm and can fit a wide range of bottle types/shapes.
The ANDITORK FIRST can perform an auto-test of its transducer and unlike analog torque testers, which can drift over time, the embedded technology ensures accuracy longer.
