Closure torque tester Automated tester for slip, removal and strip torque

ROPP Screw cap being torque tested on a Vortex-i

Overview

The ultimate solution for semi-automated torque testing of screw caps. The Vortex removes the variability of a manual tester by testing at a constant speed.

Mecmesin's torque testing software automatically captures slip, bridge-break and reverse/strip torque. Easily generate test reports with graphs of torque vs angle.

The ideal tester for making sure closures achieve a good seal that can be easily opened.
