17、Introduction Efficient packaging is of great importance for the distribution and the protection of goods as insufficient or inappropriate packaging can lead to damage or wastage of the contents of the pack. DIN EN 15543:2009-09 EN 15543:2008+AC:2008 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the
18、 dimensions of a range of screw thread finishes for the closure of bottles for beverages and other non-carbonated products, including the major sizes in use of standard and long skirt pilfer proof finishes. NOTE This finish is not suitable for liquids that are stored horizontally. 2 Terms and defini
19、tions For the purposes of this document, the following term and definition applies. 2.1 screw thread finish finish designed to take a tamper-evident closure, which needs to be snapped before it can be opened NOTE The finish is capped with a closure that might or might not have an extended skirt to c
20、over part of the neck of the bottle. The finish, with the appropriate bore control, might also be fitted with an in-bore insert to control the pour or refill ability. 3 Requirements All finishes shall be free from cracks and defects that would adversely affect sealing performance. The verticality to
21、lerance TVof the bottle for satisfactory closure application is defined by the formula given in CE.T.I.E data sheet DT 2, but shall be limited to TV= 3,5 mm for bottle height 320 mm 4 Types of screw threads finishes and dimensions Screw thread finishes shall conform to one of the following types: a)
22、 type A: standard finish, as shown in Figure 1a) b) type B: standard finish with X and Y dimensions, as shown in Figure 1b), for use with a long skirt closure c) type C: deep finish, as shown in Figure 1c) d) type D: deep finish with X and Y dimensions, as shown in Figure 1d), for use with a long sk

24、 covering the neck of the bottle with a support bead and X and Y dimensions. The sizes and dimensions of type A, type B and type F screw thread finishes shall be as given in Table 1. The sizes and dimensions of type C, type D, type E and type H screw thread finishes shall be as given in Table 2. The
25、 dimensions of the optional transition bead for type F and type G screw-thread finishes shall be as given in Table 3.
