Dud Cans

OMIT Dud Test Cans

Nomitech’s OMIT Good Dud and Adjustable Dud cans are designed to work with equipment that checks for proper product pressurization by looking at the height of the centre of the lid relative to the outer chines — metal sensor / laser-based “lookdown” systems.

When incorporated with a fill level system, the Yellow Adjustable DUD will be detected as a “Good Fill” while simultaneously challenging the pressure detection system, ensuring both inspection systems are correctly calibrated and functioning together.

Key Features

• Water and oil resistant double wall design.
• Resilient, impact resistant plastic for long-term, repeated testing.
• Verifies pressure detection (“lookdown”) system calibration.
• Adjustable height configuration for Good Dud and Adjustable Dud variants.
• Easily slips onto conveyor for rapid insertion into the production line.
• Stainless heel reinforces the bottom, minimising wear and height change.
• Cans designed to mimic production cans for optimal triggering / rejection.
• Special tool for fill height changes, restricted to approved personnel with lock.
• 1 year warranty.

Applications

Essential for canning lines using height-based (lookdown) pressure detection systems, ensuring the system correctly distinguishes properly pressurized product from underfilled or improperly sealed cans.
