Box Compression Tester vs. Other Packaging Strength Tests: A Comparison

Testing for packaging strength is important for industries such as logistics, e-commerce, food, and pharmaceutical. There are various methods through which performance of boxes and containers could be evaluated based on the operating conditions. Manufacturers will be able to reduce damage to products at delivery time, maintain standards, and optimize their packaging processes.

Among the different tests for packaging strength, the Box Compression Tester is unique, it provides an important measure of the compressive strength of boxes. In contrast to other packaging tests, the BCT emphasizes a box's resistance to vertical loads, making it especially suited to assessing stacking strength when the product is stored and shipped.

This blog will discuss Box Compression Tester, comparison of BCT with other common tests in packaging, and hence help industries choose the proper test for their requirements.

What is a Box Compression Tester?

A box compression tester is an extremely specialized piece of equipment used to test the compressive strength of corrugated boxes, among other packaging. It reveals the weight, a box can bear before being crushed or collapsing by its weight.

This test applies an even, vertical force upon the box until it bends or fails. This gives manufacturers information regarding the load-carrying capacity of a box under stacking, in transit, or storage.

The box compression test is specifically used for industries dealing with huge shipments or products that are supposed to be stacked without any pressure and do not collapse.

The sample is exposed to flame for an extended period, and the classification depends on its self-extinguishing ability and resistance to further combustion. Presto's flammability test apparatus ensures reliable testing for these advanced classifications.

Testing Procedure

  • Sample Preparation:

The plastic sample to be tested is cut to the required dimensions. For UL 94, it is usually about 125mm x 13mm but can vary according to testing standards. The sample is then mounted in the flammability test chamber securely so that it doesn't move during the test.

  • Test Execution:

Horizontal Burning Test (HB): The test specimen is placed on the base plate of the flame test chamber. A burner is applied for 10 seconds to the material, and the burning behavior is observed.

  • Vertical Burning Test (V-0, V-1, V-2): The test specimen is placed vertically, and a 10-second flame is provided. The burning behavior along with the time to self-extinguish is closely observed.
  • Results Interpretation:

The results depend on burn time, ignition time, and the degree of material degradation. This data helps classify materials for specific applications. Presto’s flammability test chambers ensure precise and reliable classifications.

FAQs

1. How long does the UL 94 test take?

Test duration can vary with the type of test but generally takes a few minutes per sample using Presto’s flammability testing equipment.

06-Dec-2024

Presto’s Vacuum Leak Tester: The Leak Detection Expert You Can Trust

An airtight pack requires, industries involved in food, beverage, pharmacy, and cosmetics, to prevent product damage. Packaging in an airtight manner helps preserve the freshness of the product, avoid contamination, and achieve the shelf life. Packaging failure can be devastating in cases where leaks occur, which could lead to spoilage and contamination and huge losses in financial terms. That is where innovative solutions like the Vacuum Leak Tester Prima Series offer capabilities beyond the ordinary in ensuring packaging meets stringent quality standards.

Introducing Presto’s Vacuum Leak Tester

A vacuum leak tester is an appliance used to detect leaks in a packaging system with the help of vacuum pressure. It can be viewed as creating a controlled low-pressure environment inside an isolated container and testing for any loss in pressure.

Why Presto?

We are a leader among vacuum leak test equipment manufacturers. We ensure excellence in every aspect of leakage testing machines for pouches and other packaging solutions.

How Does It Work?

The principle of vacuum-based testing relies on establishing a vacuum within the sealed package. The pressure inside that package is monitored. If that package is leaking, outside air enters, and this will affect the vacuum pressure. 

The pressure change is sensed by sensors in the vacuum leak tester machine and alarms the operator. The system is sensitive enough to detect even the smallest leak, meaning only those packages that are completely sealed are allowed to pass on to the next production stage.

Metrics Used:

Maximum Force or Pressure Applied: The vacuum test machine applies a specific level of vacuum pressure (usually measured in millibars or Pascals) according to the package's specifications. For example, a pressure of 1000 millibars may be applied to simulate real-world conditions.

Vacuum Holding Time: The tester can also measure how long a package will be able to hold the vacuum pressure. If the package is not able to sustain the vacuum for the duration required, then it is leaky.

Leak Detection Formula:

Leak Rate = ΔP/ΔT

Where:

  • ΔP = Pressure difference (measured in pascals)
  • ΔT = Time for the pressure change to occur

This formula is the quantification of the leaking rate of a package. Critical data for manufacturers in product quality decisions using the bubble leak test equipment for packaging.

Do's and Don'ts of the Vacuum Leak Tester Prima Series

Do’s

  • Calibrate regularly to obtain accurate results.
  • Keep the testing environment clean and dry to avoid contamination.
  • Operate the tester strictly as per the manufacturer's instructions.
  • Check the seals on the vacuum leak test chamber from time to time to ensure they remain airtight.

Don’ts

  • Do not overload the tester with packages that are not designed for vacuum testing.
  • Avoid making sudden changes in pressure as it may damage the vacuum leak detection equipment or result in wrong readings.
  • Do not ignore any error messages or alerts from the tester.

Maintenance Tips

  • Periodic Calibration: Vacuum Leak Testing Equipment must be calibrated at intervals specified by the manufacturer or the frequency of use.
  • Cleaning: The vacuum test chamber and sensor should be cleaned at regular time intervals in order not to cause buildup on any parts, which would disrupt the testing accuracy.
  • Seals Inspection: There should always be an inspection on seal and gasket wear and tear, so the seal remains tight.

FAQs

How frequently should the Vacuum Leak Tester be calibrated?

The calibration must be done at least once every three months, or more frequently if it is kept in continuous use.

Does Vacuum Leak Tester Prima Series check all types of packaging?

Yes, the Vacuum Leak Tester Prima Series is supposed to test all types, such as bottles, pouches, and other vessels used in the food industries, pharmaceutical industries, as well as cosmetic industries, among others.

Smooth Operations: Understanding and Using a Coefficient of Friction Tester

22-Oct-2024

Smooth Operations: Understanding and Using a Coefficient of Friction Tester

Friction is quite crucial when it comes to the quality of your materials, particularly those used in packaging films or sheets. Too much friction or too little friction could cause issues in transportation, storage, and even usage. Imagine a product that's just so slippery, that in shipping, it slips out of position, and on the other end, one that's just so sticky, getting stuck with packaging processes. The answer? Coefficient of Friction Tester (COF Tester).

Within this blog, we will discuss how the coefficient of friction tester helps solve these problems, as it is a key tool for various industries when assessing and trying to control friction levels within their materials.

The Global Leader:

Presto Instruments, since its establishment in 1983, has been a global leader specializing in designing and manufacturing the most up-to-date laboratory testing instruments. Though popular for innovative solutions, Presto has scrupulously maintained its policy of offering high-precision-engineered testing equipment to various packaging, automotive, plastics, and textiles industries. This has made Presto the most reliable and splendid brand across international markets.

Why Friction Testing Matters?

Material slipping or sticking is another problem companies encounter in the real world. Plastic films and sheets, and packaging materials, among others, are called upon to serve dutifully, especially upon handling and transport. Excessively high friction coefficient for the product can result in jamming in machines. Conversely, a product with a friction coefficient that is too low runs the risk of sliding off upon transport or handling, whose consequent damage and losses would be dire.

That is why an investment in a coefficient of friction tester is very crucial; it helps you accurately measure and control the frictional levels of your materials so as to avoid all that calamity.

How Does a Coefficient of Friction Tester Work?

The COF tester measures the friction existing between two surfaces—whether it's static or kinetic friction.

  • Static Friction: This is the force you need to apply to an object before making it move from its stationary position. The coefficient of static friction tester measures that resistance accurately to make sure your material has the correct starting friction.
  • Kinetic Friction: This is the measure that determines the amount of force required to maintain an object in motion after it has gained such motion. When you have products that require constant movement during their operation, for instance, conveyor belts or packaging machines, a kinetic friction tester is useful in determining their sliding friction.

How does the Testing Work?

A standard COF tester consists of a sled or sample holder and a horizontal plane. The test involves sliding one material over another and determining the force that is required to initiate the motion known as static friction, and the force that is required to continue the motion known as kinetic friction. These forces are often stated in terms of friction coefficients where it is a dimensionless quantity that only indicates how easily a material slides.

The most common expression used is:

µ = F/N

Where:

µ is the friction coefficient.

F is the force that needs to be used in the effort to pull the object over the surface

N is the normal force on the object

Features of Presto Instrument’s Digital Coefficient of Friction Tester

Presto Instruments offers a technological digital coefficient of friction tester which offers you consistent, precise results. Here are some of the most notable features:

  • Highly Accurate: With precision sensors, our testers provide reliable data to help you ensure your materials meet industry standards.
  • Digital Display: Easy-to-read digital readouts reduce errors in reading results and help streamline operations.
  • Double Functionality: Our testers measure both static and kinetic friction, giving you a complete understanding of how your materials will really perform.
  • User-Friendly Interface: It is designed in a simple format and easy to use, even for the staff who are not a technocrat, for smooth runs and easy testing.


Let’s know more!

1. What is the fundamental distinction between Static friction and kinetic friction?

Static friction refers to the power that should be applied before the sample starts to move. Kinetic friction is the force applied to keep the sample in motion.

2. How often the COF tester should be calibrated?

Every six months or by any of your industry's standards, so you don't have a problem with the accuracy.

3. Can the COF tester be used for any material other than plastic film?

COF testers could be used for friction measurement and are not limited only to plastic films. Textiles, paper, and even metals can be measured with COF testers.

With Every Test, Presto Guarantees Lasting Durability.

Bottle Quality Assurance: The Bottleneck

Just think about it: You reach for your cold drink in a bottle and twist the cap off with just about too much ease, or worse, it starts leaking. These moments are frustrating to consumers, but it can also seriously damage a brand. Whichever the material may be, be it plastic, glass, or any other, the integrity and durability of the bottle have to be ensured. But how would manufacturers ensure that every single bottle passes through all the tests that reach for high quality? This is where bottle-testing laboratory instruments come into play.

The aspect of quality, in this regard, relates to not just the aesthetics of the bottle but its strength, durability, and consistency. A mediocre bottle would mean leakage or contamination, sometimes even complete product loss. It is here that bottle testing instruments come into play by providing critical checks necessary for ensuring every bottle leaving the factory floor is able to withstand the demands placed by the market.

Solution: Bottle Testing Instruments

To overcome these challenges, manufacturers have to employ various specially designed instruments, starting from simple strength and durability tests up to performance tests on the bottles. It is with the help of such instruments that a bottle design points out weak points or points where it can fail, therefore only the best products can reach consumers.

  • Bottle Burst Tester: This forms an important tool used whenever there is a test involved, which is needed concerning the strength of a bottle that is under pressure. The bottle burst tester increases the internal pressure on the bottle until it bursts. This helps the manufacturers to determine the maximum pressure that the bottle is able to resist.
  • Bottle Compression Tester: Another critical factor is durability during storage and transportation. This Bottle Compression Tester provides the magnitude of the force that will be directly applied to a bottle before any deformation or collapse. This will provide assurance that these bottles can handle stacking at warehouses or during transport without deforming their shape or losing their integrity.
  • Bottle Cap Torque Tester: Who hasn't had the experience of a bottle cap being too loose or too tight? Well, the Bottle Cap Torque Tester makes sure the caps are applied just right. It measures the torque for opening and closing bottle caps in order to ensure an accurate closure each time it is opened, which plays an important role in freshness and safety.

Why These Instruments Matter?

Each of these tools plays an important role in bottle manufacturing. Through bursting strength, resistance to compression, and torque on caps, all aspects tested by these bottles-manufacturers will be in a position to ensure the bottles are safe, reliable, and of good quality. This not only secures the brand's integrity but also ensures better customer satisfaction by preventing failures of products.
 

KEY BENEFITS:

This improves product safety through bottle testing instruments that can perceive a weakness in the bottles in due time for taking corrective measures. All the bottles will turn out to be safe for use.

  • Customer satisfaction: Customer satisfaction would increase, as, almost negligible numbers of problem-related issues would be experienced by customers. As a result, this enhances the trust of customers in a particular brand.

  • Cost-effective: It saves money since the detection of flaws at an early stage will help avoid costly recalls or product failures.

  • Compliances to standards: Almost every industry has very strict rules as far as packaging is concerned. Testing instruments of this kind help the manufacturer meet those standards with a very high degree of assurance.

CLEAR YOUR DOUBTS!

1. Are they capable of handling all bottle sizes?

Yes, these instruments are adjustable, thus allowing different sizes of bottles to be tried on them for various uses.

2. Can these instruments be integrated into an automated production line?

Yes, many bottle testing instruments can now be integrated into automated production lines, whereby continuous testing and monitoring of bottle quality during manufacturing can be done.

3. Is it possible for these test tools to be applied to different shapes of bottles?

Well, the bottle testing equipment may be designed in such a way that they could operate with different shapes and sizes, even quite specific or uniquely shaped bottles, so no type of bottle would go untested.
