PTI will Exhibit VeriPac 325 Non-Destructive Leak Testing System at Pack Expo in Chicago, IL

Tuckahoe, NY (PRWEB) September 13, 2006 -- Packaging Technologies & Inspection (PTI) will exhibit the VeriPac Model 325 inspection system at the Pack Expo Show running October 29 – November 2, McCormick Place in Chicago IL, PTI Booth S-1878.

The VeriPac 325 inspection system utilizes an ASTM approved vacuum decay leak test method (F2338-05) recognized by the FDA as a consensus standard for package integrity testing. This test method was developed using VeriPac leak test instruments.

Heinz Wolf, general manager for PTI, states “In recent years the number of recalls due to defects that compromise package integrity and sterility as well as problems with container closures have escalated.”

He adds, “Package integrity testing using destructive inspection methods such as water bath, dye tests, peel and burst tests render all tested packages useless, both good and bad. These methods are time consuming and unreliable, producing results that are dependent on technique, sample preparation and operator variability. VeriPac leak test systems are an ideal QA/QC process control tool to ensure package quality, and are non-destructive to both package and product. VeriPac systems allow for increased sampling and offers fast, precise and repeatable quantitative test results.”

VeriPac’s non-destructive technology is capable of detecting package leaks and invisible defects for all types of food, pharmaceutical and medical device packaging. The criteria for selecting the appropriate VeriPac model is based on the type of package and leak test sensitivity desired. Configurations can be optimized with either single or dual high resolution transducers as well as type of vacuum supply, i.e. internal, external, etc.
