Box Compression Strength Tester
Touch screen model with 7″ DELTA HMI — TI/BCT/TCH/46
Corrugated and solid fibre board boxes are subjected to compressive forces when stacked and during transportation. It is vital to determine the compression strength of the box to make sure it will resist the anticipated compressive forces and withstand the load during transit and storage. This equipment measures the ability of a container to resist external compression loads, serving as a useful index of overall quality of the material and workmanship of the box. The touch screen model features a 7″ DELTA HMI with Dell PC for real-time load vs displacement graphing, direct digital readout of compression strength, easy calibration and overload protection.
