Green projects
Your innovations in eco-responsible, recyclable or reusable packaging can lead to new control or measurement requirements.
ACRN helps you in its fields of competence for : development of equipment, adaptation, tests,… .
Discover here our projects carried out since 2018 in collaboration with our clients marked with an icon .
Here are some examples of customer problems:
Leak tester for soap refills
Cosmetic industry
For an original shaped soap refill, the ATS tube seal tester has been adapted to allow testing of this pouch.
Leak test for electronic device housing
Consumer electronics
The customer was looking for a low-cost device to test the watertightness of a plastic case intended to be immersed in the sea. ACRN imagined an immersion and vacuum test with a rise and fall of the case to avoid water ingress which would damage the internal components.
Torque measurement under industrial screwdriver
Perfume packaging
In order to be sure of the adjustment of its perfume bottle screwing machines, whatever the products packaged, our customer needed dummy and mobile torque sensors. They were used during the industrialization of the production line but also at each change of production batch….
Breaking torque of recyclable wooden spoons
Food manufacturer
In order to replace the plastic spoons with wood, this manufacturer had to ensure the strength and breaking torque of the spoons. We made the test protocol and provided them with a test facility so they could ensure the strength of their product.
Adaptation of a tube tester for recyclable tubes
Cosmetic industry
The appearance of recyclable materials for cream and shampoo tubes To make testing less destructive, we have developed a form of presser that limits marking on the tubes during testing. Compliant tubes are no longer discarded.
Cargo bay depressurization simulation chamber
Aerospace industry
To simulate the landing/takeoff of a helicopter, we have built a large box with a controlled leakage rate to test the resistance of electronic boxes.
Carrying out tests
You want a specific study for :
- Test or compare new packaging.
- Measuring forces or torques on industrial equipment.
- Analyze a temporary quality problem.
Thanks to our equipment and know-how we can perhaps carry out tests to save you time or support you in the analyses.
Lipstick mechanism selection
Make-up manufacturer
To select a lipstick mechanism from several suppliers, tests were carried out by ACRN. The test consisted of operating the mechanisms several hundred times to select the one that had the best opening and closing torque over time. Fatigue tests and graphical analysis were carried out by ACRN to provide tangible evidence for the choice of mechanism.
Implementation of quality control
In our fields of expertise (torque, force, dynamometry and tightness), we can assist you in the implementation of quality control in France and near Europe
