01 · Custom-made

Development of custom equipment

You need specific equipment, a new packaging to test, or you face a new challenge. From the adaptation of one of our models to the design of a complete solution, our design office will assist you. Do not hesitate to contact us.

Green projects

Your innovations in eco-responsible, recyclable or reusable packaging can lead to new control or measurement requirements.

ACRN supports you in its areas of expertise: equipment development, customization, testing… Discover the projects we have carried out since 2018 in collaboration with our customers.

Examples of customer challenges

soap refill leak test

Cosmetics industry

Leak tester for soap refill pouches

For an originally shaped soap refill, the ATS tube crusher was adapted to allow testing of this pouch.

electronic device leak test

Consumer electronics

Leak test for an electronic device enclosure

The customer was looking for an inexpensive device to test the watertightness of a plastic enclosure intended to be immersed in the sea. ACRN designed an immersion and vacuum test that raises and lowers the enclosure, to prevent water ingress that would damage the internal components.

torque measurement under industrial capper

Perfume packaging

Tightening torque measurement under industrial cappers

To be sure of the settings of its perfume bottle cappers, whatever the products being packaged, our customer needed mobile dummy torque sensors, used during the industrialization of the production line.

breaking torque of wooden spoons

Food manufacturer

Breaking torque of recyclable wooden spoons

To replace plastic spoons with wood, this manufacturer had to check the breaking force and torque of the spoons. We developed the test protocol and provided them with a test set-up so they could check the strength of their product.

soap doypack

Cosmetics industry

Adapting a tube tester for recyclable tubes

With the arrival of recyclable materials for cream and shampoo tubes, we developed a presser shape that limits marking on the tubes during tests. Compliant tubes are no longer scrapped.

helicopter

Aeronautics industry

Cargo hold depressurization simulation chamber

To simulate helicopter landings and take-offs, we built a large chamber with a controlled leak rate to test the resistance of electronic enclosures.

Carrying out tests

Looking for a one-off or specific study? With our equipment and know-how, we can carry out tests to save you time or support your analyses.

Test or compare new packaging

Measure forces or torques on industrial equipment

Analyse a temporary quality issue

lipstick

Customer example · Make-up manufacturer

Lipstick mechanism selection

To select a lipstick mechanism from several suppliers, ACRN carried out tests. The test consisted of operating the mechanisms several hundred times to select the one with the best stability of opening and closing torque over time. ACRN ran fatigue tests and graphical analyses to provide tangible data for choosing the mechanism.

Method: repeated operation
Volume: several hundred cycles
Analysis: fatigue + graph
