<p>In a system and method for "bench testing" a production packaging process, particularly in order to test the suitability of new packaging components and materials, minimum, nominal, and maximum values for each of several process parameters are used to generate discrete sets of parameter values that include unique combinations of the maximum and minimum parameter values, and a combination of the nominal parameter values. At least two sample packages are then processed using each set of parameter values, and the sample packages are evaluated for leaks, burst-strength, and appearance. Values characterizing the evaluation of each sample package are then recorded as a data set with the sample package's parameter values and a unique sample identifier. The resulting data sets is statistically analyzed and compared, for example, to a control data set to characterize the suitability of the new packaging components and materials relative to the control.</p> |
