Short cycle time, precise performance

The Axial Load Tester is an easy to use semi-automatic instrument for testing necked and un-necked beverage cans. The gauge measures the axial load required to cause the can to deform in Newtons, pounds or kilograms. A number of unique features are designed to improve on the already established test.

The Axial Load Tester accepts beverage cans with bodies from 202 - 211 and neck diameters from 200 - 206 using quick change, tool free inserts. Bev cans may be tested either way up by simply switching the platen and plug fixtures, which takes less than a minute. Neck plugs are customer specific.The axial load is applied via a high precision, digitally controlled motor. This technique delivers a shorter cycle time. The intuitive, language free touch screen interface gives supervisors full control of the test programme.
