Puncture Resistance Tester

Benefits of Puncture Resistance Tester

Puncture Resistance Tester is a consistent tool useful to determine the resistance to puncture of paper and paperboard. Puncture Resistance Tester is used to measure the resistance of paper, paperboard and other similar materials when subjected to puncture and determination of absorbed energy.

Puncture resistance tester is a special packaging detection instrument for the determination of anti-puncture performance (namely puncture resistance) of Paper & Packaging materials. Resistance to puncture is an important parameter that determines quality of a wide range of materials - from thin papers to thick boards and similar materials.

The specimen is clamped on a fixture and is pierced with the help of a pendulum released from 90 Degree position. The pendulum head is made pointed in a pyramid shape. Different weights are provided in the pendulum for different scales. A pointer is fitted in the pendulum which gives the reading in a calibrated scale.

The corrugated box may get an impact from the sharp corner of any article during handling and transportation. The same effect is simulated by the puncture resistance testing machine. The higher the corrugated box quality the better its puncture resistance value.

The Presto puncture resistance testing equipment has been made with a high-quality rugged structure and corrosion-resistant main body. The microprocessor-based display has been embedded in this lab testing equipment that provides accurate testing results. Users can easily get an accurate view of the puncture resistance strength of the material. With its strong gripping fixtures for holding test samples, one can easily conduct puncture-resistant tests on different paper and packaging materials. Presto is a leading puncture resistance tester manufacturer and offers the best perforation tester price to clients.

This lab testing equipment has been made in accordance with industry standards that include IS 4006 1987 (Part-II), TAPPI –T803, ISO 3036, ASTM F1306 and ASTM D781. It comes with a digital LED display and works on an oscillatory pendulum release mechanism to conduct puncture-resistant tests on the materials with ease. This testing equipment is based on strong gripping fixtures to hold the sample accurately and a puncture head collar is incorporated in this testing machine with soft adjustment to the puncture head base. With its feather touch controls, users can accurately operate this testing equipment.
