Seal Leak Testing of Pet Food with our ASTM 3078 System

Did you know that you can quality test your pet food by using our bubble leak testing system? I am not sure if pet food is subject to FDA regulation. As far as a quick google search goes, FDA ensures that pet food is safe and that it serves the intended function. In order to for the manufacturer to produce safe pet food, it must be tested for seal quality and container closure. We don’t want our newly adopted best friend to be eating spoiled food. The question is: would your newly adopted dog tell you that the food she’s eating tastes spoiled? And two, let’s be real here, who do you think adopted who in the first place :)?

Just as our Bubble Emission Testing System can be used to test for seal integrity on food made for human consumption, medical packaging, and nitrogen filled pouches, it can also be used to test for seal and closure integrity of pet food.

What you are looking at is our standard 12 inch Wide, 10 inch Deep, and 8 inch high bubble leak testing system with a rotary vane pump placed on an aluminum frame structure. This system is fully setup and ready to go, just add water.

Our clients prefer to work with us because we are Experts in Vacuum Science and Technology. What are you building? Take a look at the links below and discover some of the cool things we make.

Altitude Simulation Systems
Altitude simulation systems are devices that simulate a certain altitude equivalent by controlling the vacuum inside a vacuum chamber. Altitude is a function of absolute pressure, therefore if a certain pressure is accomplished inside a vacuum chamber, a specific altitude can be simulated from the set pressure. Altitude simulation systems can be configured to not only hold a certain pressure, a complete pressure vs time profile can be programmed to be run. Furthermore, pressure vs time recipes can be loaded and run based on test requirements.
Power Vacuum Feedthroughs
Power vacuum feedthroughs are hermetically sealed off the shelf components used to transfer electrical power from the outside of the vacuum chamber into the inside of the vacuum chamber without compromising the vacuum. One example application would be powering an electronic device inside the vacuum chamber
Our Work: Custom Vacuum Chamber with Blank Plate
You are looking at our standard Acrylic Vacuum Chamber, Hinged Door with Clamps. There is only one difference; this vacuum chamber has a blank acrylic plate that is connected to and aluminum plate which in turn is anchored to the side wall of the acrylic vacuum chamber. This blank plate is there to enable our client to add vacuum feedthroughs to the side wall in the future
