A Step-by-Step Guide for Performing Edge Crush Testing
Edge crush strength is an important property of corrugated boxes that determines the box’s ability to resist crushing forces that may be applied to its edges. This testing ensures that the boxes can handle being stacked in warehouses and being transported on conveyor belts without collapsing or losing their shape. Testing edge crush strength helps to ensure the safety of the items inside, as well as making sure that your packages have the best protection when shipped. Thus, we at Presto have designed a high-quality edge crush testing instrument that is used to test the edge-wise compression strength of the materials and helps to ensure that boxes manufactured can handle forces that may be exposed to. The Prima model of the edge crush tester has been designed to test the edge-wise compression strength of paper and its related products. It comes with a microprocessor-based high-speed controller for accurate test re...
