Importance of drop strength test

The drop strength test will be conducted to withstand your package with higher drops. This will help you to ascertain the material’s quality. This drop strength testing machine will help you to deliver zero error results and is useful for assessing the drop strength test of cartons with ease.

In the corrugated box industry, dropping strength is considered to be one of the most important performance characteristics to be considered to ascertain the drop strength of the package with ease. This refers to how well a box can withstand being dropped from a given height without sustaining damage.

The main reason for this is that boxes are often stored on high shelves and must be able to withstand being dropped during shipping and handling. To ensure that boxes have sufficient dropping strength, manufacturers often use multiple layers of corrugated board. By increasing the number of layers, manufacturers can increase the amount of energy that the box can absorb before being damaged. As a result, boxes with a higher dropping strength are better able to protect their contents from damage. Below we have listed the features of the Presto drop strength tester.
