Testing equipment for pharmaceutical and medical packaging
Looking for test equipment to measure the physical properties of your pharmaceutical or medical materials? Rycobel is your partner for purchasing measuring equipment, maintaining and calibrating your devices. Below we give you a glimpse on what Rycobel has to offer.
Universal Testing machine for many applications

The Thwing Albert's universal materials testers can be modified to meet a broad range of test applications from simple to complex.
Equipped with the right fixture, this tensile tester can handle multiple applications:
- Medical needle fixture
Simulates the amount of force required to insert and extract syringes from different bottles. - Medical Pouch Tear Fixture
This fixture simulates the tear on a medical package/pouch - Package Seal Strength Fixture
The Package Seal Strength Fixture is designed to use a vacuum powered clamping system to hold unique samples to test the seal strength for a variety of applications. - Bend test fixture
Bend test fixture to test medical ampoules.
JDC Cutter for sample preparation
The JDC Sample Cutter creates test strips to an exact width and parallel throughout their entire length in accordance with MEET: ASTM F88, ASTM D882, ASTM D6287, and TAPPI 494. Cuts made to prepare a sample for tensile testing are critical to the accuracy and quality of the results. Preparing a sample without jagged edges or nicks is vital to ensure accurate tensile results.
Rycolab Heat Seal Tester

The ‘heat sealer’ simulates, in the lab, the sealing in a production environment. Laminated films and other packaging materials are sealed with this unit in a simple way. Production parameters such as temperature, pressure and time can be set. In this way one looks for the best possible seal strength.
Pressure bubble tester
The TM Electronics TME Pressure Bubble Tester provides low pressure and controlled flow to apply to a pouch to meet the requirements of ASTM International F-2096 test method “Standard Test Method for Detecting Gross Leaks in Packaging by Internal Pressurization (Bubble Test)”.
Worker Integra : Leak and flow test system
The TME WORKER Integra™ is a bench-top, high resolution (as low as 0.0001 psi) test instrument with a small footprint and user-friendly ease of operation. The system can be configured to perform pressure or vacuum decay leak testing, flow and occlusion testing on non-porous, flexible and rigid products.
Vibration test systems

The test systems are simple to operate safely and can perform a wide range of vibration tests in accordance with government, industry and corporate specifications.
Used to see if your packaging is robust enough to survive the rigors of transit, whether you are shipping individual units or full pallet-level deliveries such as Loose Load & Vehicle Vibration
