THE IMPORTANCE OF NDT IN THE PACKAGING INDUSTRY

At CMS, when we talk about the packaging industry, we consider all packaging made from aluminum. These materials play a crucial role in the protection, preservation, and presentation of products, where safety, hygiene, and durability are priorities in this field. Aluminum must meet strict requirements to preserve the quality of products, prevent contamination, and comply with environmental regulations. This material offers an excellent barrier to moisture, light, and oxygen.

Thanks to our Eddy Current systems and probes, designed with the latest cutting-edge technology, the goal is to ensure their quality by detecting all failures present on or below the surface of the product.

Many types of packaging can be inspected during their manufacturing process, such as aluminum foil used to create cans, beverage cans, storage trays, etc.

CMS EXPERTISE

Defects detection: surface, subsurface, short, transverse, longitudinal, oblique defects, holes, cracks, corrosion…
Material sorting, mix grades
And much more…

All our Ultrasonic and Eddy Current systems meet the requirements of current European and international standards EN, ISO, ASTM and more.

Our teams are at your disposal to discuss your project and build together an effective solution adapted to your needs, while taking your constraints into consideration.

MAIN ADVANTAGES

State-of-the-art inspection NDT systems: CMS systems are fully customizable to suit the specific product being inspected, as well as your detection requirements and constraints. Robust and compact, they are able to work in harsh environment.
Early Defect Detection: CMS systems help identify cracks, porosities, inclusions, or other internal or surface defects with high sensitivity at early stages of production or during usage.
Preservation of Material Integrity: CMS NDT systems allow the inspection of aluminium applications without altering them, meaning they can continue to be used after testing.
Enhanced Security: By identifying weaknesses in aluminium structures or equipment, NDT reduces the risk of accidents or catastrophic failures, especially in critical industries.
Real Time Inspection: The performance of CMS systems enables you to inspect your products directly during production, ensuring continuous quality control.
Precise defect analysis and traceability: Thanks to our CMS software, the inspection results are displayed in real-time and comprehensive inspection reports with complete traceability tracking are created at the end.
