Bursting Strength Tester

Presto Bursting strength tester Analogue model is designed for reliable measurement of bursting strength of corrugated boxes. With the help of this model, you will be able to test the strength of the material under certain multi-directional force and is defined as the hydrostatic pressure that is required to produce rupture of the material when pressure is applied to it at an increased rate through a rubber diaphragm. The Bursting Strength Tester is designed to find the bursting strength of Paper/Paperboard. A Test specimen is held between two annular clamps under sufficient pressure to minimize slippage. The Upper Clamping surface has a continuous spiral groove, and the Lower Clamping surface has a number of concentric grooves. A Circular Diaphragm of pure gum rubber is clamped between the lower clamping plate and a pressure cylinder so that before the diaphragm is stretched by pressure underneath it, the center of its upper surface is below the plane of the clamping surface.

In the analogue model, you will get two analogue pressure gauges with ranges 0-7 kgf and 35 kgf and having a least count of 200 g/cm2 and 1 kgf/cm2 respectively. This testing instrument is ideal for testing the bursting strength of various materials like solid fiberboards, industrial fabrics, leather, uneven boards and boxes, industrial fabric and solid fiberboards, filter cloth, plastic films, Foils, sheets, etc. PRESTO Bursting Strength Tester is manufactured under various test standards like ASTM D 3786-01, ASTM D 3786 – 80A, ISO 1060 PART-1 1987.

When you apply hydraulic pressure through a rubber diaphragm on the test specimen then it will relatively rupture the material. You can easily calculate the value of hydraulic pressure that will rupture the testing specimen in terms of kg/cm2. Corrugated boxes are used in many industries, from retail packaging to foodservice. You'll want to make sure that your boxes have enough strength so they don't burst when filled with heavy items. The best way to do this is by understanding what makes up a strongbox and then testing it against these criteria before putting it into use. Thus, with the help of the Presto Bursting Strength Tester Analogue Model, you will be able to determine the maximum amount of force a package can take before it bursts.

It doesn't matter how careful you are with your product packaging if it isn't strong enough because any mishandling will cause damage. After testing has been done, manufacturers use these results to make sure their products are safe and secure when they reach consumers. Therefore, with the help of the Presto Bursting Strength Tester Analogue model, you will be able to get accurate testing results of bursting forces that rupture the specimen. The need to test the bursting strength of corrugated boxes is necessary because it can be a crucial factor in how your product is received by consumers. If your package doesn't have the appropriate burst strength, then it cannot withstand the forces to test the bursting strength of boxes.
