BEO-200: Pressure, Easy Open and Loose Ends

Quality By Vision’s BEO-200 – Buckle Tester for Easy Open and Loose Ends is an automatic, safe and easy to use pressure tester for easy open end manufacturers. The system includes a computer with software that automatically detects the buckle and burst (pop) points for a seamed or loose end and displays the end’s pressure performance at each stage of the test on a graph.  The hardware consists of a robust pressure chamber with a protective door and multiple safety features.

The operator positions an end inside the pressure chamber and locks it in. As soon as the safety door is locked, the operator presses the Start button to begin the measurement. Controlled air pressure is provided from the bottom and the pressure is gradually increased until the end buckles and then pops open. A non-contact gauge is used to measure the deformation of the end.

At the end of the measurement, the software automatically detects and displays the buckle and burst points on the graphs.

The graphs and the reports are saved and can be displayed at any stage after the test. The software also includes a robust SPC system to display trends, histograms and capability statistics.
