High-resolution Synchrotron CT for analysing sealant distribution
Our expertise in the field of Imaging enables us to detect even the smallest defects in polymer sealants and cans. Using high-resolution Synchrotron CT, we can gain detailed insights into the structure and integrity of the sealants. This method provides an accurate three-dimensional image of the cans and sealants, allowing weak points to be precisely localised and analysed.

Neutron CT for analysing sealant distribution
Our expertise in the field of Imaging enables us to detect even the smallest defects in polymer sealants and cans. With Neutron CT, we can gain detailed insights into the structure and integrity of the sealants. This method provides an exact three-dimensional representation of the cans and sealants with a high contrast, allowing weak points to be precisely localised and analysed.

Its water-based sealants for food, beverage and general-line metal packaging, together with its innovative technical solutions and advanced technical support, improve lining processes, enhance quality, add value and help to reduce cost.
We are always eager to explore new technics and are delighted to have seen the potential of ANAXAM applied in the field of sealing compounds in metal packaging.”
With ANAXAM Synchortron CT analysis we have been able to gather a 360º view of the sealant placement inside the seam.”
Answers to the most frequently asked questions
Our analysis methods are applicable to beverage cans, food cans, paint cans, spray cans and other types of metal cans.
Leaks are detected by high-resolution Synchrotron CT and Neutron CT, which provide detailed three-dimensional images of the cans and sealants.
Synchrotron CT offers a very high resolution, which makes it possible to identify even the smallest defects and cracks in polymer sealants.
Neutron CT can penetrate deep into materials and reveal hidden layers and internal structures with high contrast, which is ideal for analysing polymer-metal bonds.
By precisely identifying weak points and defects, targeted measures can be taken to improve the sealants and seals, which increases product quality and safety.
The sealant distribution is analysed using high-resolution Imaging techniques such as Synchrotron CT and Neutron CT, which enable a detailed analysis of the material distribution and any irregularities.
