Plastic Packaging Heat Seal Tester ASTM F2029 Lab Heat Sealer
A heat sealer is an indispensable machine employed to seal products
and packaging made from thermoplastic materials. Heat sealing, a
process involving the fusion of thermoplastics through the
application of heat and pressure, is crucial in various industries
including packaging, food, medicine, and beverages. Utilizing heat
sealers ensures the integrity and safety of the packaged products.

Test Process
During testing, a sample is placed between two parallel heated
sealing jaws, and the required temperature is allowed to reach
equilibrium. The upper seal jaw, driven by a gas cylinder, exerts a
specific pressure on the sample for a predetermined duration. Upon
completion of the sealing time, the upper sealing jaw returns to
its original position, concluding the heat sealability testing
process.
