The drop tester proves invaluable for assessing the endurance of corrugated cartons. It features a motorized arrangement to lift the single-wing structure, operated by a pneumatic system. A wired remote control enables easy operation of the machine. Boxes undergo testing in three orientations: edge-wise, corner-wise, and on a flat surface.
Positioned on the wings, the box is raised to a specified height and then dropped as per testing standards. Operators observe the effects of free fall on the carton. Widely utilized in industries dealing with carton manufacturing, the Presto drop tester is particularly prevalent in the paper and packaging sector. Its guided motorized mechanism allows for platform elevation, while its robust base plate ensures accurate drop strength testing. With this high-quality testing instrument, carton manufacturers can determine the maximum load a box or carton can withstand before failure.
