Label Testing

Label Testing

When manufacturing qualified labels, manufactures should have several considerations in designing and processing:

• Print quality and durability
• Adhesive properties
• Environmental conditions
• Face stock

Common tests can perform on the high-precision test machines according to various standards:

• ASTM D3330 -- Standard Test Method for Peel Adhesion of Pressure Sensitive Tape
• ASTM D5264 -- Standard Practice for Abrasion Resistance of Printed Materials
• ASTM F2732 -- Standard Test Method for Unrestrained Linear Thermal Shrinkage of Plastic Film and Sheeting
• ASTM D1894 -- Standard Test Method for Static and Kinetic Coefficients of Friction of Plastic Film and Sheeting
• ASTM D3654 -- Standard Test Methods for Shear Adhesion of Pressure Sensitive Tapes

Thickness Tester

Thickness Tester is a high precision mechanical contact method thickness tester, which can be used for thickness measurement of films, sheeting, paper, corrugated paperboard, textiles, non-woven fabrics, and solid insulation materials, etc.

?Friction / Peel Tester

Friction / Peel Tester can be used to test coefficient of static and kinetic friction of plastic films, sheets, foils, paper, cardboard, woven bags, fabric (fabric style test), metal-plastic composite strip/belt for communication cable, convey belt and textile, as well as peel strength test of adhesive laminated products, medical adhesive bandage, release paper and protection films.

?Thermal Shrinkage Tester

Thermal Shrinkage Tester is designed and developed in accordance with ISO 14616 and GB/T 34848, for determination of shrinking force, contracting force and shrinkage ratio of heatshrinkable films. Shrinking force greater than 0.01N can be detected.

?Lasting Adhesive Tester

Lasting Adhesive Tester can be used to test the holding power of pressure-sensitive tapes, pressure-sensitive labels and protective films, etc.

Rub Tester

Professionally applicable to the abrasion resistance test of surface coating layers of printed materials, e.g. ink layer or photosensitive (PS) coating. This instrument conforms to ASTM D5264 & TAPPI T830.
