Why the HTT-01 Hot Tack Tester is Essential

In industries where packaging integrity is critical, the HTT-01 Hot Tack Tester plays a crucial role in ensuring the strength of heat-sealed layers immediately after sealing. This instrument’s multifunctionality, precision, and safety features make it an invaluable tool for quality control in packaging processes, reducing the risk of seal failure and maintaining product quality.

Purpose of the HTT-01 Hot Tack Tester

The primary function of the HTT-01 Hot Tack Tester is to evaluate the hot tack strength of heat-sealed layers. This is especially important in vertical form-fill-seal (VFFS) processes, where limited cooling time requires strong hot tack force to prevent seal failures. Additionally, the HTT-01 also serves as a horizontal tensile and peeling force tester, ensuring the overall reliability and integrity of seals across various materials.

Applications of the HTT-01 Hot Tack Tester

1. Hot Tack in Vertical Form-Fill-Seal (VFFS) Packaging
   The HTT-01 is ideal for VFFS packaging applications, where immediate contents introduction and substantial weights necessitate strong hot tack force to maintain seal integrity and prevent spills or package failures.

Main Parameters of the HTT-01 Hot Tack Tester
