What is a Bottle Cap Torque Tester?
-
A Bottle Cap Torque Tester is a specialized testing instrument that measures the rotational force (torque) applied when tightening (application torque) or removing (removal torque) a bottle cap. This ensures that caps are applied with optimal force, preventing leaks, product damage, and user inconvenience.
Types of Torque Tests:
Application Torque Test – Measures the force used to tighten a cap onto a bottle during packaging.
Removal Torque Test – Determines the force required to unscrew a cap, ensuring ease of opening for consumers.
Tamper-Evident Torque Test – Evaluates the force needed to break tamper-evident safety bands.
By conducting these tests, manufacturers can standardize packaging, reduce defects, and enhance product safety.
