FAQs of Torque Testing Instrument for Bottle Cap:
Q: How do I use the torque testing instrument to measure cap removal torque?
A: To measure the removal torque, securely clamp your bottle between the four adjustable pegs. Set the machine to the desired operating mode (clockwise or counter-clockwise) and manually apply force to the cap. The instrument instantly displays the torque value, assisting in quality control analysis.
Q: What types of bottles and caps can be tested with this instrument?
A: This device accommodates bottles with diameters between 20 mm and 100 mm, and caps between 10 mm and 180 mm in diameter. The adjustable clamping pegs make it suitable for a variety of bottles, jars, and closures used in industries such as food and beverage, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics.
Q: When should I use the data output feature?
A: Data output via RS232 or USB is recommended when you need to maintain detailed testing records for compliance, quality audits, or statistical analysis. Connect the instrument to a printer or PC as needed to export or print real-time or stored test data seamlessly.
Q: Where is the torque tester ideally installed for operation?
A: The bench-top design ensures stability and is best suited for use in laboratories, quality control departments, or production lines. Place it on a flat, sturdy surface in environments maintaining 10C to 40C temperature and 85% relative humidity for optimal performance.
Q: What is the process for switching between manual and semi-automatic operation?
A: The instrument operates manually by default, but certain models offer semi-automatic options. Consult the equipment manual or your supplier for instructions on enabling semi-automated features, such as motor-assisted clamping or preset torque application, if available.
Q: How does the safety feature protect users during torque testing?
A: The built-in overload protection system detects excessive force and triggers an alarm to prevent damage to the machine and safeguard the operator from potential accidents. This ensures safe testing even when high torque forces are involved.
Q: What are the main benefits of using this torque testing instrument?
A: Key benefits include high measurement accuracy (0.5%), customizable capacity, user-friendly data output, real-time display, and robust construction. These features allow for efficient quality assurance, regulatory compliance, and minimization of production defects.
