Abstract

See full text

A leak testing system (210) for medicament sachets (200) is disclosed. The system (210) includes a base section (220) having a flat surface (226). A plurality of guide rods (230) extend from this flat surface (226) of the base section (220). A press section (240) incorporates a plurality of through-holes (242) that are used to movably mount the press section (240) on the noted guide rods (230). The press section (240) includes a flat surface (246) that is maintained in at least substantially parallel relation to the flat surface (226) of the base section (220). A medicament pouch (200) may be compressed between these flat surfaces (226, 246) of the base section (220) and the press section (240) by sliding the press section (240) along the guide rods (230) and in the direction of the base section (240). Multiple press plates can be added to adjust the force and weight to test for leaks.
