Products

FEF-200

Have you ever wondered how much force a stretch wrap pattern, shrink hood or stretch hood is generating on a product or load? The FEF-200 answers this question. This mobile device can be mounted on any given pallet. After installation, the forces will be measured en registered in 32 different points.

SPT-300

The shrink bundle is the “corner stone” of a load unit in the beverage industry. Fluctuations in quality of this “corner stone” lead in many cases to transport damage or instable loads. In order to continuously monitor the parameters of the shrink bundling process, ESTL developed the SPT-300. This devices makes it possible to measure the stiffness of the shrink bundle.

FPT-750

Stretch film is one of the most widely spread packaging materials to secure goods to a pallet. Most stretch films look quite alike however there are many differences in the mechanical properties. The FPT-750 simulates the different sides of the stretch wrap process and measures the mechanical properties. This allows comparison of stretch films.
