Pacorr’s Bottle Cap Torque Tester is an advanced and reliable testing solution designed to measure the torque force required to open and close bottle caps. In industries where product safety and packaging integrity are non-negotiable, torque testing becomes essential. Whether it’s a carbonated beverage, a pharmaceutical solution, or a cosmetic product, improper cap torque can lead to leakage, contamination, or consumer dissatisfaction.

With Pacorr’s torque tester, manufacturers can accurately evaluate the tightness of screw-type closures, helping them strike the right balance between seal strength and user convenience. This ensures not only quality control but also compliance with international safety and packaging standards.

Importance of Torque Testing in Packaging Industry

Torque testing determines the rotational force applied during cap sealing and unsealing. Both over-tightened and under-tightened caps present risks—ranging from product spillage to usability issues.

Pacorr’s Bottle Cap Torque Tester addresses these risks with highly precise measurements that enable consistent packaging quality across different production batches.
