Torque is one of the 3 facets of Induction\u2014Pressure, Heat, & Time. Pressure is the torque application of the closure onto the land of the bottle. Heat, meaning the directional energy which is caused by the induction unit itself. Time is based on the speed of the conveyor. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Rule of thumb is one half the diameter in (mm) of the closure for inch pounds of torque. For example: 38mm = 19 inch pounds. 17-26 In-lbs-on-torque would be the recommended range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n |
