Quality inspections for dental wax

This example is a dental wax / glue which is purchased in tubes by dentists. The interest is to compare different suppliers with regards to the porosity (bubbles) inside, with lower porosity the consistency of the product is better when pushed out of the tube. The images show some selected examples of the tubes with the glue and porosity.

Also of interest is to measure the actual volume of the glue in the tube:
