Box Compression Tester - NXG Generation Models | presto Group

Box Compression Tester Digital Mini - Patent No. 341519-002

This equipment is designed to measure ability of the Mini cartons or printed Duplex cartons to resist external compression loads during transit and storage It is important to evaluate 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 withstand during transit and storage.

The cardboard strength and construction directly impact the amount of weight a box can carry. A box too weak might puncture or collapse. On the other hand, an excessive box means you pay extra for material and add to environmental wastage.
PRESTO Mini Box Compression Tester is manufactured under various Test Standards ASTM D642, ASTM D4169, TAPPI T804,
ISO 12048, and JIS Z0212

Box Compression Tester – NXG Generation Model

This next-generation box compression testing instrument has been embedded with an open system for flexible and stable program development. The New software DOPSoft 4.0 offers more complete functions and a better interface. Its capacitive touch controls and easy working operation will make it easy for the users to conduct box compression tests on the specimen. The Compression strength is determined by placing the box on a flat platform and pressing it downwards from the top with the help of a motorized arrangement. The compression strength can be calculated by a user by placing the box on a flat platform under compressive force.

Box Compression Tester Computerised

Platform Size : 1M * 1M

The PRESTO Box Compression Tester Computerised is a compact Instrument with user friendly controls & software. Cardboard boxes should possess sufficient compression strength so that they do not get deformed or crushed when stacked one above the other either during transit or in storage. The compression strength is determined by placing the box on a flat platform and pressing it down from the top with the help of another flat plate by a motorised arrangement.

PRESTO Box Compression computerised can be used for Duplex and corrugated cartons. The unit comes complete with over travel protection, `TARE’ and `P/H’ (Peak Hold) facility. A low cost compact tester for the packaging industry.

The equipment is very rugged with heavy angle iron base for stable performance at load. The highly sensitive load sensor is strategically centrally located to enable perfect corner to corner load results.

The equipment is built on a rigid metallic base plate and finished in Autumn Gray & Blue combination painting and bright chrome / zinc plating to give it a corrosion resistant finish.

The Instrument comes complete with Instruction Manual ,Electrical Wiring Diagram & Calibration Certificate traceable to NABL approved Labs.

Box compression tester

The utilization of corrugated boxes as the prime packaging products in various industries has been extremely prevalent over the years. The transit operators utilize corrugated boxes due to their affordability and superficial build that makes them highly portable even after getting loaded. However, the risk of their deformity is high under storage & transit measures as they are stacked above one another for minimal space occupation.

The deformity caused due to stacking can damage the item(s) packed inside, therefore, manufacturers evaluate the compressive strength of a corrugated box before utilizing it for packaging with the help of the box compression tester. The instrument simulates stacking and allows the operator to assess the compression tolerance of the corrugated box.
