Bursting Strength Tester (Mullen Type)

Analogue type, hydraulic burst — model TI/MT/3/391

The Mullen Type Bursting Strength Tester measures bursting strength of paper, paperboard and corrugated board by applying hydraulic pressure through a rubber diaphragm until the specimen ruptures. The peak burst pressure is captured on a large analogue dial gauge with drag pointer. This robust, mechanical design is the industry workhorse for incoming material checks and process control in paper mills, corrugated board plants and packaging units.
