Capstar II
The CapStar II torque tester is a simple, easy-to-operate digital torque tester designed specifically for use in the pharmaceutical, food and beverage, and cosmetics industries.
The ability to accurately measure the release torque on bottle and container closures is an essential discipline to meet the required torque for child-resistant closures, while ensuring that the end user can open the product and that product freshness is maintained.
Description
Multilingual software and consistent interface ensure ease of use when working with external torque transducers. The CapStar II has a variety of modes and can measure track, peak, 1" peak (click), and pulse. Results are displayed on an easy-to-read screen.
