The MB3600-CH80 Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) Packaging Analyzer is a rugged industrial FT-NIR solution for fast analysis of PET containers like jars, bottles and preforms.
It is intended for R&D centers, QA/QC laboratories or production lines of companies performing a large number of daily measurements of PET containers key characteristics.
This analyzer is the ideal solution for:
Equipment suppliers who supply PET packaging machinery for blowing, injection molding, extrusion, or thermoforming.
Companies who produce PET preforms or containers (bottles, jars).
Food and beverage companies who buy PET containers to fill with their products.
The MB3600-CH80 enables precise determination of several PET quality attributes such as crystallinity, moisture content, wall thickness or intrinsic viscosity. Analysis is performed within a few seconds, as an alternative to slower laboratory methods. No specific sample or instrument preparation is required, and the measurements are totally non-destructive.
