Description

The PLS production-line simulator reproduces the friction of a packaging line in a repeatable, accelerated way. The test simulates the abrasion caused by the bottle-to-bottle contact typical of packaging lines. It is the ideal device for assessing the manufacturing quality of glass bottles and of their coatings, decoration and labeling.

FAQ

What is the primary function of the PLS Production Line Simulator?
The PLS replicates friction and abrasions between bottles on a packaging line, enabling accelerated and reproducible testing of glass bottle coatings, decorations, and labeling without running actual production.

What container types can the PLS test?
The PLS tests glass, plastic, and aluminum bottles and cans with sample diameters from 50-150 mm, making it suitable for both returnable and single-use container quality assessments.

What are the key adjustable parameters on the PLS?
On the PLS, operators can set cycle times, rotation speeds from 0 to 20 rpm, and conveyor border spacing. An adjustable water nozzle simulates wet-line conditions. Air supply of 5-8 bar and AC 220 V power (AC 110 V optional) are required.
