Strength of Corrugated and solid fibre board boxes are subject to compressive forces when stacked and during transportation. It is vital to determine the Compression Strength of the Box in order to make sure that the box will be able to resist the anticipated compressive forces and to determine the load that the box will be able to with stand during transit and storage. Box Compression Tester is a machine in which the compression ability of any carton can be calculated. It is used for calculating how much weight a can box bears and what type of material can be put in a box. This equipment is designed to measure ability of the boxes resist external compression loads during transit and storage. Compression Strength Test also serves as a useful index of overall quality of the material and workmanship of the box.

The standard capacity of a box compression strength tester comes with a capacity of 1000kgf. Box compression strength tester having higher capacity is also available. Through this machine carton capacity is measured easily any anticipated force a box can bear is tested by the machine. Which helps in transit and for other purposes. It is a quality control process through which this manufacturer easily calculates the specific requirement of the carton. In this test, it can be tested that what will be the strength and weight of the box should reach to customer. The tester machine passed box assures that it is safe and will not tear in any complicated situation.

Application

There is always stress for manufacturers to deliver their product to the customer within in time limit through Box Compression Tester it becomes an easy task. As we all know in the food and beverage industry the food products are very soft material so the durability of this material box is an important step. In shipping the most important step is that the carton should be delivered with as much sound as it was in packaging time. In transportation what type of truck the company uses to deliver its product is the equally important thing.

If we talk about the pharmaceutical industry then the medical instrument is fully covered and packed in a way that would not damage if shipped through any complicated transport. Through the Box Compression Tester quality of the product will be the same as the manufacturer put in a box. The compression ability of the machine helps in calculation load ability within in short period of time. In the automotive industry, part of the machine is packaged then a box of that material is loaded with less material because these are very big in size. Companies’ products are delivered after compression tests which decide the durability and quality of the material

Process of Testing

• Preparation of specimen which will undergo the machine. The tester would be ready to check the box then all measures fully followed and checked properly. It’s easy to operate under a tester but reading and graph will show on screen which is connected with it.
• According to the dimensions of the box, the Box Compression Tester is set up. This tester setup is according to all international standards. The machine is adjusted according to sample size because in machine size can be increased or decreased according to the carton.
• Place the box in between platens, there are two platens in the machine. During the test, the carton should be clean and in good atmospheric condition. When the machine exerts pressure on the carton then it will be applied downward which is applied from the above part of the machine.
• The machine calculates the result with the help of its meter and this meter reading is applied to the carton that’s why it shows a better result. Calculated force can be recorded and that decides data accuracy. Load spreader is a present machine because of every aspect of the product.

Paper testing instruments are the complete solution to all paper-related problems. Through this testing, it is easy to calculate the yielding strength of paper. Packaging needs safety and this tester sets up the quality of the paper. This is a new solution for the paper industry as it condition of good quality. Paper is a widely used material that helps in every industry whether direct use or indirect use. In the education industry largest supply of paper. This instrument helps in checking the quality of the paper within a few seconds. Data collection about paper is recorded then a lot passes after that it is ready to supply to the customer. Data applied on every lot different that’s why it is tested in different range and provide solution of complete paper product. Manually recording data is not necessary because the digitalization of machines helps a lot in recording and calculation.

Box compression tester manufacturers are widely available all over India. The quality of their product depends upon the supplies of raw materials. In the tester, every part is duly tested and then checked for further use. Machine instrument suppliers are present in every region so, competition in manufacturing. Your brand value makes you separate from others. Many rods used in compression boxes are certified and supplied by reputed suppliers. Quality lack is not possible in our brand. As a manufacturer, it is our responsibility to supply the best product to our customers. The product rejection rate in our supply chain is 1 out of 10. We are working on as much quality we supply then new suppliers add on with us.
