Pump dispenser bottle operation

Customised engineering example

As a method to dispense liquids and sprays propellants, such as pressurised gas, are avoided for many reasons. Dispensers with manual spring-loaded pumps are often used in their place.

These dispensers are shaped for finger operation, and as filled containers, they typically give a more reliable dosage when used.

So how do you repeatedly test the actuation force of an awkward and messy pump dispenser? Mecmesin met a client's needs by custom-designing a bottle support cavity and a stainless steel collection bin, into which the contents were expelled by the pump.

This efficient solution ensured the correct alignment of the dispenser for the compression test and afforded easy cleaning of the expelled liquids and creams.
