Partner of your quality approach, Hospitec supports you in the regulatory controls of your welders (heat sealers)
The different stages of a welder inspection
On-site control
Test of the following points:
- programmed sealing temperature
- programmed sealing pressure
- welding width > 6mm
- absence of grooves, folds, chimneys
- seal intact over the entire width and length of the weld
- no delamination or separation of materials when opening the bags
- no bursting of bags during the sterilisation cycle
Control in the measurement laboratory
In the days following the on-site inspection, we carry out pull-out resistance tests in our measurement laboratory on:
- 5 sterilised welds
- 5 unsterilised welds
We thus measure the following data:
- Minimum strain
- Maximum strain
- Medium strain
The ISO11607 standard imposes an average strain value greater than 1.5N
This report contains, among other things:
- A notice of compliance according to the standards
- A comparison between the indications of the welder and our measuring instruments
- Follow-up with comparison of the results of previous tests
- A relevant opinion possibly proposing corrective measures
- A detailed conclusion of the entire inspection
