We were able to meet all their requirements with a simple system, which mimics the functioning in practice and enables them to establish the amount of force at capping and to adjust this amount before the actual capping takes place. on the basis of the measurement data anyone anytime can adjust the force and therefore assure that capping takes place with adequate force. thus, in just five minutes, the user can prevent irregularities before the bottle reaches the consumer.
''The system for measuring the force of closing at the packing machine is built according to traits we value here at Lek: speed, simplicity, consumer focus and orientation toward quality, trust, and efficiency. It enables us to quickly and efficiently identify the source of the problem when bottles break and also provides confirmation of correct settings for our machine. By developing and using these systems, we are setting new benchmarks in quality for our consumers.''
