Packaging is key to the success of a product; not only should it be practical and fit for purpose, it also needs to encourage customers to buy. The role of packaging has expanded further over recent years, with requirements including machine identification and the promotion of additional information.
The packaging industry’s unique needs of process control and quality assurance must be delivered by accurate, reliable and repeatable measurement equipment, ensuring that the products manufactured meet the highest standards of visual precision and reliability. Manufacturers must utilise accurate packaging testing equipment and inspection systems, to reduce imperfections, meet regulatory requirements, and ensure it's fit for purpose.
