Seal-Scan

Seal-Scan® is an Airborne Ultrasonic (ABUS) Technology that offers a deterministic, quantitative, high resolution method that inspects pouch seals for defects and seal integrity for consistency.
Testing is non-destructive, non-invasive, and requires no sample preparation. Seal-Scan® provides advanced digital imaging software tools for process control, which offer in-depth seal quality analysis.

Technology

Pouch seal or package material is scanned between two focused ultrasonic sensors. Ultrasonic waves propagate through single or multiple layers of bonded materials.
Ultrasonic propagation through different mediums causes reflection of sound waves, and reduces/eliminates signal strength. The level of signal passing through the seal is a function of the quality of the seal. Various types of defects, leaking and non-leaking, process-related and random, are detectable.

Seal-Scan® is capable of producing Opto-Acoustic images as well as detailed statistical analysis by offering two scan modes: L-Scan and C-Scan.

• Deterministic inspection method producing quantitative results
• Works for any material and combinations regardless of color, transparency, print, surface finish and porosity
• Produces high resolution Opto-Acoustic image of seal
• Characterizes overall quality and uniformity of the seal.
