Standard Test Method for Determination of Leaks in Flexible Packaging

The Science of Seal Integrity The Standard Test Method for Determination of Leaks in Flexible Packaging Manufactured by Burhani Engineering Technology is the foundation of modern packaging quality control. This method focuses on using a pressure differential to force air out of a package through any existing holes. Burhani Engineering Technology specializes in the manufacturing of the vacuum chambers and specialized apparatus required to perform this "bubble emission" test effectively and reliably. Practical Application of the Method Using Burhani's equipment, the standard test method is transformed into a streamlined process: Submersion: The flexible package is placed in the chamber and covered with a perforated plate. Vacuum Activation: The chamber air is evacuated, causing the package to expand. Observation: The technician watches for a steady stream of bubbles from a single point. Verification: The vacuum is released, and the package is inspected to confirm the leak location. Benefits for Flexible Packaging Flexible packaging is prone to "micro-leaks" at the corner seals and zip-lock areas. The Standard Test Method for Determination of Leaks in Flexible Packaging Manufactured by Burhani Engineering Technology is the only way to catch these errors before the product is shipped. It is a non-electronic, visual method that provides instant feedback to the production team. The Burhani Quality Guarantee Burhani Engineering Technology has spent years perfecting the design of our flexible packaging testers. We use only the highest quality materials, ensuring that our chambers do not cloud or scratch easily, which is vital for seeing small bubbles. Our commitment to this "Standard Test Method" makes us the preferred choice for packaging professionals everywhere.
