FAQs about Metal Packaging Testing Equipment

  • Coating thickness, adhesion, and curing quality directly affect corrosion resistance and product compatibility. Insufficient coating or improper curing can lead to blistering, metal exposure, or flavor contamination. Conducting routine enamel rating, adhesion, and curing tests helps maintain coating integrity and ensures longterm product protection. 

  • Double seam performance is influenced by body hook length, cover hook formation, overlap, tightness, and material thickness. Variations in seaming pressure, tooling wear, or can/end alignment can lead to defects such as false seams, wrinkles, or cutovers. Using calibrated seam inspection tools and standardized measurement procedures ensures consistent seam quality across production.

  • There are a huge number of different testing options for metal packaging we can help you with, here are just a few of the most common:

    • Double seam inspection
    • Coefficient of friction testing
    • Burst testing
    • Abrasion testing
    • Compression and crush testing
    • Deformation testing
    • Seal integrity testing

  • If you’re experimenting with metal packaging for the first time or you’re expanding your line and are unsure of the kind of testing ideal for everything from R&D to QA, be sure to get in touch. Our expert engineers can help you find the right metal packing testing machines and equipment for your set up.

  • We know how essential it is to be confident that you’re testing to the appropriate standards when you’re developing a new solution or quality checking existing packaging. That’s why we develop equipment that is in line with the most widely recognized international testing standards for a variety of sectors and applications, whether that’s ASTM, ISO or DIN.
