The 6 Cutting-Edge Technologies Powering Our Rigorous Quality Control
At Pack Logix, quality control is integral to our commitment to excellence. By leveraging cutting-edge technologies, we ensure that every product meets the highest standards. This blog highlights six essential technologies that are the backbone of our advanced quality control process, explaining their purpose, functionality, and importance.
1. Bruker Alpha FTIR (Fourier Transform Infrared Spectrometer)
- Used for:
Identifying and quantifying chemical compounds.
- How it works:
FTIRs analyze the infrared spectra of samples to provide detailed molecular composition and structural information.
- Why it matters:
This technology is crucial for verifying the authenticity and purity of raw materials.
2. Koehler KV3000 Kinematic Viscosity Bath
- Used for:
Measuring the kinematic viscosity of fluids.
- How it works:
Kinematic viscosity baths determine the flow properties of lubricants, oils, and other fluids by measuring their kinematic viscosity, which is the ratio of dynamic viscosity to density.
- Why it matters:
Viscosity is the most essential property of a lubricant. This technology assesses optimal performance under various conditions.
3. CGOLDENWALL Visible Spectrophotometer 721 Light Meter
- Used for:
Measuring absorbance and transmittance of light in the visible spectrum.
- How it works:
Visible spectrophotometers measure how much light a sample absorbs and transmits, providing data on the concentration of substances in solutions.
- Why it matters:
This technology is essential for chemical analysis and ensuring product consistency and purity.
4. Anton Paar DMA 4500 M Digital Density Meter
- Used for:
Measuring the density of liquids with high accuracy.
- How it works:
Digital density meters use the oscillating U-tube principle for precise density measurements.
- Why it matters:
Density is a crucial property in all fluids. Accurate density measurements are crucial for quality control in all fluids, particularly in hydraulic systems.
5. Fisherbrand Accumet AE150 - Benchtop pH Meter
- Used for:
Measuring the acidity or alkalinity (pH) of a solution.
- How it works:
Benchtop pH meters provide precise pH readings, indicating the acidity or alkalinity of a solution.
- Why it matters:
pH levels can significantly impact product performance and stability and are crucial in determining the potential of a lubricant to cause corrosive damage to equipment.
6. Mettler Toledo C10S Coulometric KF Titrator
- Used for:
Determining the water content in samples with high precision.
- How it works:
Coulometric Karl Fischer (KF) titration provides highly accurate and reliable water content measurements.
- Why it matters:
Water content is critical for the performance of products like brake fluid. This technology identifies trace amounts of water to prevent costly issues, including reduced lubricity, oxidation, and corrosion.
