Corrugated boxes are a boon for the packaging industry as manufacturers considered them to be the most effective material to ship and store their products. But what if the quality of these boxes is poor? It would result in the damage of products between shipping and transportation. Thus, we at Presto have come up with one of the highly used lab testing instruments known as the bursting strength tester which is used to determine the bursting strength of corrugated boxes, fiberboards, paper boards, and many other materials.
The digital bursting strength testing instrument will be provided with a hydraulic load under a rubber diaphragm that will accurately determine the bursting strength of boxes with ease. You can easily measure the bursting strength of these boxes with the increase in uniform hydraulic pressure. Here in this article, we are going to discuss brief information about the importance and benefits of bursting strength tester in the paper and packaging industry. So, stay connected till the end to know more about this lab testing equipment.
Save your box from getting burst in between transportation by testing with a bursting strength tester
The bursting strength of corrugated boxes is considered to be one of the most important factors that are used to determine whether the box can withstand the rigors of shipping or not. By testing the bursting strength of boxes, you will be able to reduce 59% of your packaging problems. When you will test the bursting strength of boxes, then you will be able to evaluate the resistance of materials like paper and its related products against bursting.
Thus, with Presto bursting strength tester, you will be able to determine the bursting strength of corrugated boxes and also test them for their durability.
