Testing Capabilities • Applied Torque: The ST-INLINE can be used as a benchtop capper, tightening the cap to a customer defined setpoint. • Release Torque: The ST-INLINE is designed to accurately measure the release (thread break) torque of a cap. • Peak/Transient Torque: The standard ST-INLINE can measure and display the Applied or Release Peak in a torque testing cycle, however with optional hardware upgrades it is also possible to measure certain torque transients such as the engagement torque of a CR closure system or the peak of the bridge break torque of a Tamper Evident Band. • Container/Closure Fatigue: By allowing the ST-INLINE to apply and release the cap a number of times, it is possible to evaluate the effect of fatigue on the torque retention and seal quality of the closure and seal. • Release and Re-apply Torque: When packaging expensive products it is often required to return the tested container to the packaging line. By automatically re-applying the torque to the operator defined setpoint it is possible to save the product.
