Film Heat Shrinkage Tester

The film heat shrinkage rate tester is a device specifically designed to measure the shrinkage performance of film materials under heating conditions.

Applications

The film heat shrinkage rate tester is mainly used to test the heat shrinkage performance and dimensional stability of various film materials, heat - shrinkable tubes, pharmaceutical PVC sheets, backplanes, etc. in liquid media at multiple temperatures. By precisely measuring the dimensional changes of the film before and after heating and calculating its heat shrinkage rate, the heat shrinkage performance of the material can be evaluated. This performance is directly related to the quality and reliability of products. In the packaging industry, such as in the fields of food, beverages, cosmetics, etc., film materials are widely used for product packaging. The quality of their heat shrinkage performance directly affects the packaging effect and product safety. Through the testing of the film heat shrinkage rate tester, problems that may occur during the heat shrinkage process of materials, such as uneven shrinkage and failure to meet the shrinkage rate standard, can be promptly identified and resolved, thus ensuring the quality of packaging materials.

Test Procedures

1. Equipment Preparation

Check that the liquid heating medium (e.g., silicone oil) is sufficient. Connect the power supply, turn on the instrument, preheat, and calibrate the temperature control system to ensure the temperature stabilizes within the required test range.

2. Sample Preparation

Cut film samples (e.g., 100x100mm) according to standards such as ASTM D2732. Measure and record the initial length and width dimensions of the sample using calipers.

3. Parameter Settings

Select the compliant standard through the instrument interface and set the test temperature (multiple temperatures are available), holding time, and other test conditions.

4. Test Start

Place the sample flat in the liquid heating medium without constraint, start the test program, and maintain the set temperature and duration to complete the heat shrinkage process.

5. Post-processing and Measurement

Remove the sample and cool it to room temperature. Measure its length and width dimensions again and record the data after shrinkage.

6. Data Calculation

Calculate the shrinkage rate using the formula (Heat Shrinkage Rate = (Initial Size - Shrinkage Size) / Initial Size x 100%6), export the data, and generate a test report.
