The Oxipack Multi Leak Tester (MLT) is a high-precision solution designed for detecting leaks in a variety of rigid packaging formats. It provides non-destructive, accurate testing for products such as pods, capsules, cans, jars, bottles, vials, and cups. With its vacuum decay method, the MLT ensures the highest level of quality control, safeguarding products while minimizing waste.

Key Features of the Multi Leak Tester (MLT)

  1. Non-Destructive Testing: The MLT uses a non-destructive method to detect leaks, ensuring that tested packages can be returned to the production line if no leaks are found. This method preserves the contents and packaging, reducing product waste and contributing to cost savings.
  2. Versatility in Testing Rigid Products: The MLT is highly adaptable and designed to handle a wide variety of rigid packaging, including pods, capsules, and bottles. Its flexibility makes it a valuable asset across multiple industries, from food and beverage to pharmaceuticals.
  3. Custom-Fitted Testing Chambers: To ensure precision, the MLT uses pre-formed testing chambers that match the exact shape of the packaging being tested. This allows the MLT to embrace the pack securely, protecting its contents while conducting leak detection. This customization enhances accuracy in detecting both large and micro leaks​.
  4. Accurate and Immediate Results: Results are delivered in real-time with a simple pass/fail indicator, providing immediate feedback on package integrity. This efficiency improves overall production line speed and ensures that only leak-free products proceed to the market.
