In essence, the manufacture of spout pouches is a highly industrial activity that requires high-end machinery and technical know-how. Spout pouches are usually subjected to multiple tests to verify their applicability and reliability when holding different products.
Some of these tests include the following;
1. Interlayer adhesion test – the essence is to judge the level of interlayer adhesion of self-pocket film structure.
2. Puncture resistance test – Designed to check the level of pressure required to puncture the flexible packaging material used to make the spout pouch.
3. Tensile test – This test is designed to determine how far a material can be stretched and the amount of force required to break it.
4. Compression test – This test is designed to determine the amount of air pressure the spout pouch can withstand.
5. Seal strength test – This analyzes how well the seal performs and how efficiently it keeps the spout pouch closed for a specific period.
6. Drop test – The essence of this test is to determine the height to which the spout pouch can be dropped without failure.
7. Vacuum test – This identifies any leaks in the spout pouch under external vacuum pressure.
8. Burst test – This test is designed to evaluate the optimum pressure at which the spout pouch will burst.
9. Coefficient and friction test – it verifies the smoothness of film packaging.
All of these quality inspection tests are carried out in a well-equipped laboratory to ensure that your spout pouches function properly and provide reliable performance.
