Box Compression Tester

Product Description

Box Compression Tester is an accurate instrument used to calculate the compression Strength of cardboard and corrugated boxes, so that they do not get crushed when stacked together during transit or storage. Testronix is considered to be the best box compression tester manufacturers India. Box Compression Tester is designed to quantify the force which the box material can withstand. Box Compression Tester is aesthetically designed and user friendly.

With the help of Box Compression Tester the compression Strength can be easily calculated.  This instrument helps in acting as an index of overall quality of the material and the compression capacity of the box.

Test Standards ASTM D642, ASTM D4169, TAPPI T804, ISO 12048, and JIS Z0212. 
 

Working Principle of Box Compression Tester

The working principle of Box Compression Tester is based on exerting force on the specimen in order to measure the compression strength that a corrugated box can withstand. The testing starts after the sample is placed on the rugged surface of the machine. After the right positioning of the sample, the motorized platform placed on top of it measuring 400mm X 450mm starts moving downward with the help of a lead screw forcing compression on the corrugated box. Once the compression starts you can find a resemblance to real-life cardboard stacking. The compression strength can be applied up to 500 KGF. The maximum compression strength or the force the corrugated was able to withstand is depicted on the digital meter for easy reading & retrieval of the test results.
