Ishida AirScan How AirScan detects the slightest CO2 leakage In-line pack integrity tester The unique Ishida AirScan tests the sealing of individual MAP (modified atmosphere packaging) in-line. It detects holes as small as 0.25mm, at line speeds of up to 180 packs per minute. 1. Rollers apply pressure to pack 2 System features and benefits AirScan works by lightly pressuring each pack while testing the air around it for traces of excess carbon dioxide (CO2), using laser technology. Deviation from the specified MAP gas mix, as caused by leakage, reduces the product’s shelf-life and may damage...
