A torque tester is a crucial instrument used in industries like beverages, pharmaceuticals, and cosmetics to measure the opening and closing torque of bottle caps. Accurate torque measurement ensures product integrity, user convenience, and leak prevention during storage or transport.

Here’s why torque testing matters and how modern testers improve reliability:

• Ensures Consistent Seal Tightness: Over-tightened caps can be hard to open, while under-tightened ones may leak. A torque tester helps maintain ideal torque ranges for safety and usability.
• Reduces Product Recalls: By ensuring consistent torque application, manufacturers avoid packaging failures that could lead to expensive recalls or customer dissatisfaction.
• Improves Production Line Quality Control: Torque testers are used directly on the production floor for random sampling, helping identify defects early.

Modern torque testers from leading Indian manufacturers now include:

• Digital display with high precision readings
• Built-in printers for on-the-spot report generation
• Peak hold function for capturing maximum torque
• Universal bottle clamping for testing different shapes/sizes
• Compliance with international testing standards like ASTM D2063

One of the most advanced models is Presto’s Torque Tester with Printer, which is widely trusted for its accuracy, robust build, and efficient performance in high-speed production settings.
