Aerosol Testing

Industrial Physics - a propellant for success

At Industrial Physics, we’re experts in metal packaging – with aerosol testing knowledge to help you to minimize can defects, solutions for double seam inspection, and a whole range of specialized testing solutions. 

Created by some of the world’s leading experts in metal packaging, we’ve invented a host of great test and measurement machines specifically for aerosol cans. Our suite of solutions have been designed for testing monobloc, two piece, and three piece aerosol cans.  

Our fully automatic modular aerosol testing systems allow you to customize and build a bespoke network of test and measurement devices to perfectly match your requirements 

Extra dimensional aerosol testing

Our aerosol testing portfolio features the world’s only fully Automatic Aerosol Lab from our product line, Torus. It takes over 8,000 measurement data points across a full range of dimensional and destructive module options. 

Then you could try our Multidimensional Automatic Gauge for Aerosol Cans (MDA) – a truly unique piece of equipment that, measures all the critical dimensions of any size aerosol you need to check. It does this both automatically and simultaneously – so you get reliable results within ten seconds!  

Many aerosol can manufacturers rely on a wide range of handheld calipers, micrometers, and devices to gauge the key stats of their metal packaging. We make some great manual gauges like the CMC-KUHNKE Manual Seam Thickness Gauge but this approach can be time consuming and costly compared to our ‘all-in-one’ systems. They measure all dimensions in less time than it would take you to open a can!  

Seamless seam inspection 

Imagine a tool that takes the guesswork out of seamer setup, improves seam integrity and consistency, increases uptime, and makes changeovers much faster than previously possible. Our Clearance Gauge, from Quality by Vision does all of this and more! Use it to set up the seamer and fix problems in a way that’s both quick and accurate. Another purpose designed aerosol testing device to consider is the Quality By Vision SEAMetal HD: Aerosol Cans, the industry’s most flexible solution for double seam inspection. 

When you need to know how much pressure your seams, materials or components will withstand before they burst, our ABT-3100 burst tester from CMC Kuhnke provides all the answers. 

Good looking aerosols – inside and out

Your metal packaging may look great from the outside. It may carry your brand with style and endure the demands of the supply chain. But are the insides fit for purpose? That’s where our wide range of can coating analyzers come in. For example, there’s our Torus Z313 Enamel Rater, which measures the lacquer integrity of metal cans, with a typical throughput speed of three cans per minute. If you need fast and accurate internal diameter measurements, you’ll also appreciate the Torus B309 Semi-automatic Aerosol Internal Diameter Gauge with its state-of-the-art confocal white light technology.
