Leak tester VeriPac 410 tester non-destructively checks for seal integrity and leaks in blis- ter packages. Tester combines vacuum- decay testing with differential-force measurement to identify defective pack- ages or blister cavities. Quantitative pass/fail eliminates errors due to opera- tor subjectivity. Unit tests multiple pack- ages in one cycle and quickly changes between blister formats. Because tests do not harm packages or products, they can return to production line. Packaging Technologies and Inspection, Tuckahoe, NY.
