Child-resistant closures are an important safety feature for many products. They are designed to prevent children from opening potentially dangerous products. These closures are commonly used on medications, cleaning products, and other household items. When these closures are manufactured, it is critical that they meet the required torque specifications. Torque testing is a way to ensure that the closures meet these specifications and perform as intended. By conducting torque tests on child-resistant closures, one can easily ensure that quality material will be delivered to the customers. Presto Torque Meter has been designed to test the torque value of bottle caps, closures, and other related materials. Here in this blog, we will discuss the importance of testing the torque value of child-resistant closures. We will also discuss how child-resistant closures should be tested against torque value.
Evaluate torque resistance of child-resistant closures with torque testing
Child-resistant closures (CRCs) are designed to make it difficult for children to open containers of different substances. They can also help to keep products fresh and safe for longer periods of time.
Testing the torque-resistant value of child-resistant closures is an important part of the quality control process. If the torque value is too low, children may be able to easily open the closure. If the torque value is too high, adults may have difficulty opening the closure. The ideal torque value is one that makes it difficult for children to open the closure, but not so difficult that adults cannot easily open it. To ensure that child-resistant closures are effective, it is important to test the torque value of the closure. This can be done with the use of high-quality torque testing equipment known as the Presto torque tester digital model.
This high-quality lab testing equipment has been designed to measure the force or torque required to open the closed bottle cap of a PET bottle. The torque value will be displayed in digital format.
This high-quality torque testing equipment will ensure that the bottle delivered will accurately be tested and users will get precise lab testing results. You can read more about the importance of torque testing in the PET bottle industry.
