www.rdmtest.comHSG-3 & HSG-5Gradient Heat SealerPRECISION LABORATORY HEAT SEALER FOR ACC URATE AND REPEATABLEDETERMINATION OF HEAT SEAL THRESHOLD, WITH 3 OR 5 SETS OF SEALINGJAWS. PRODUCES SEALS 15MM WIDE AND 30MM LONG.The satisfactory development, manufacture, conversion and application of flexible packaging filmsnecessitates the implementation of precise methods of quality control systems. Efficient determination of heatseal thresholds is achieved with this multi-jaw heat sealer. Up to 5 pairs of jaws can be fitted with independenttemperature control providing a temperature gradient on the film. Especially suited for flexible packagingmaterials, laminates, foils and paper, the HSG-3/5 multi-jaw features accurate control of temperature,pressure and dwell time of a standard surface area sealing jaw.With the introduction of a standard test method ASTM F2029-00 and our heat sealer HSG-3/5, you can beconfident that your heat seal threshold measurement is common to all producers, converters and end users offlexible packaging materials and their eventual applications.UK & International:T: 44 1279 817171E: sales@rdmtest.comMeets ASTM F-2029-00 (only when top/lower jaw heated)Americas:T: 1 (469) 805 0003E: sales@rdmtest.comwww.rdmtest.comASSURED QUALITYTESTING SOLUTIONS
