The Nordson nozzle flow-rate tester quickly identifies worn and partially plugged can-coating nozzles, improving quality control for two-piece can-coating operations. The off-line system supplies water at a constant pressure to the nozzle for a predetermined time interval. The amount of water collect in a supplied beaker is compared to a reference chart listing optimum flow rates for specific orifice sizes.

• Measures nozzle flow rate to detect variances from a specified mean, which can identify worn and plugged nozzles, and enhance quality control
• Quantifies nozzle wear to assist statistical process control methods for improved quality control
• Complete preassembled unit for fast and easy installation and operation
• Includes flow-rate chart for easy evaluation of all common nozzle/orifice sizes
