Torque Test Products

Vortex-i - skomputeryzowany system do pomiaru momentu obrotowego stosowany w produkcji jako gwarancja wysokiej jakości, w projektowaniu jako system umożliwiający optymalizacje funkcjonalności produktu z jednoczesnym minimalnym zużyciem materiałów oraz w kontroli jakości do sprawdzania stabilności i zgodności z wymaganymi standardami jakościowymi.

The release torque and extraction force of sparkling wine closures is measured with a Mecmesin CombiCork tester fitted with pneumatic clamps to hold different sized bottle securely in place.

The opening and closing torque on lipsticks is tested using a Vortex-i PC-controlled torque testing system. The torque tester is fitted with custom designed adaptors to fit different sizes of lipsticks.  The Vortex-i is driven by Mecmesin's Emperor Torque software, which gives immediate indication of "Pass" or "Fail" for each type and size of lipstick.  Results can be seen in real-time and stored for future use.

This video shows torsion springs being tested to pre-defined torque settings using Mecmesin's Vortex-i PC-controlled torque testing system. The torsion springs are held securely by custom-designed individual two-part mandrels. The Vortex-i is driven by Mecmesin's Emperor Torque software, which gives immediate indication of "Pass" or "Fail" for each type and size of torsion spring.

The Helixa is used to assemble Luer connectors to a reference connector at a precise torque specified in International standard  ISO 80369-20

Mecmesin's digital torque testers are used to measure the mimimum application torque of Child-resistant closures according to ASTM D3810.  The Tornado is a portable, battery powered hand operated instrument can be used anywhere, while the motorised Vortex-xt torque tester provides a constant test speed for reliable repeatability of testing.

Mecmesin's digital torque testers are used to measure the reverse-ratchet torque performance of child-resistant closures according to ASTM D3472.  The Tornado is a portable, battery powered hand operated instrument, while the motorised Vortex-xt provides a constant test speed for reliable repeatability of testing.

Mecmesin's digital torque testers are use to test the performance of child-resistant closures according to ASTM standards D3198, D3472 and D3810.  The motorised Vortex-xt  provides a constant test speed for reliable repeatability of testing, eliminating operator bias and protecting against repetitive strain injuries.

Force & torque are tested simultaneously using a Combi-Cork-i test system.  The system measures the effort needed to remove the cork and re-stopper bottles used for premium quality products. When opening the bottle, the cork is both pulled and rotated, and the Combi-Cork-i records the extraction force simultaneously with the torque as the cork is twisted. 

The opening torque on containers fitted with child-resistant closures (CRCs) is measured with a semi-automated Vortex-d motorised torque tester with a top-load capability for applying set loads during torque testing. The Vortex-d has been fitted with pneumatic actuators to clamp the bottle cap and raise and lower the top-load weights.  The Vortex-d has been superceded by the Vortex-dV.
