Package Testing Q&A
-
Asked November 25th, 2009
I would suggest sticking with the 0.002-in. wire since that is the sensitivity of the standard. Perhaps there is a gage block of this size out there, which might make it easier to extract the standard from the package. We typically use a wire, however that has been used on mostly pouch samples and not a tray, and we have not seemed to have this same problem. An alternative contact on this might be to speak with the technical contact of the ASTM F1929 standard. This information is readily available on the ASTM Web site and is accessible to the general public. This individual could probably give you some insight as to how they did this during the Precision and Bias for the standard.
