How Poor Bursting Strength Can Affect Your Product Quality?

Gaurav Malhotra

The use of corrugated boxes in the packaging industry has increased due to their increased strength and durability. These boxes will offer an immense number of benefits to paper and packaging manufacturers. But what if, these boxes will get burst due to rough handling? This will affect the quality of products and will lead to potential damage. Thus, to ensure that the boxes will have high bursting strength, we at Presto has designed one of the high-quality lab testing instrument known as a bursting strength tester. A bursting strength tester is one of the widely used lab testing instruments that is used to test the bursting strength of the materials and help manufacturers in determining the quality of products delivered.

In this blog, we are going to provide you with information about the Presto bursting strength tester and how this quality lab testing equipment is used to test the bursting strength of the materials. We will also discuss how poor bursting strength can affect the quality of the product. So, let us get started!

Importance of bursting strength test

The bursting strength test is an important quality control test for many types of products. This test measures the amount of force required to burst or break a product. The results of this test can be used to compare different products, & determine if a product meets certain standards, or identify manufacturing defects.

This quality test will be highly useful in improving the quality of products and ensuring that the products will meet customer expectations.

The bursting strength is considered to be the strongest quality factor that will be used to test the quality of the product delivered.

Using high-quality lab testing instruments will also help the manufacturers in ensuring that the products delivered will be of high quality. Presto offers high quality bursting strength tester that is used to test the bursting strength of different materials and help manufacturers in ensuring that the quality of products will be delivered accurately.

All about Presto bursting strength tester

The bursting strength of corrugated boxes is the amount of force required to rupture or break them. It is measured by applying pressure to the walls of the box until it collapses. The higher the bursting strength, the more resistant the box is to pressure and damage.

Presto bursting strength tester is one of the high-quality lab testing instruments that is used to test the bursting strength of the materials and enables the box will hold the contents accurately without collapsing.

This lab testing equipment will accurately determine the digital indications of readings and has a microprocessor base with the original Intel chip.

It comes with a single push button and microprocessor-based display that helps the users in testing the bursting strength of the materials accurately. This quality lab testing equipment will accurately measure the strength of boxes and test whether the materials will be able to withstand the bursting forces.

With the help of this quality lab testing instrument, you can easily analyze the bursting factor of packaging films and ensure products delivered will be accurate. The Presto bursting strength tester has been designed with high-end features that help manufacturers in reducing product rejections effectively.

Now, let us discuss the features and technical specifications of this quality testing equipment.

With these high-end features and technical specifications, one can easily conduct bursting strength tests on the materials.

How poor bursting strength of materials will affect its product quality?

The bursting strength test is conducted by applying a force to a sample of the material until it breaks. The force is applied using a machine that can apply different levels of force. The results of the test are reported in terms of the burst strength, which is the amount of force required to break the material.

If the corrugated box has low bursting strength then it will easily get burst and will lead to unnecessary product damage. Thus it will be important for bursting strength test manufacturers to test the bursting strength of the materials so that the right quality of products will be delivered.
