Box Compression Tester – C611M

The Labthink C611M Box Compression Tester determines the compression strength, deformation and stacking capacity of cardboard boxes and other types of containers.

Its computerized system dynamically records force and deformation during testing. It offers different test modes to evaluate packaging behavior during storage, transport and distribution.

Key Features

• Compression force and stacking tests.
• Three modes: compression, stacking A and stacking B.
• Load capacity of up to 9 kN.
• Force resolution of 1 N.
• Deformation resolution of 0.1 mm.
• Adjustable speed from 0 to 200 mm/min.
• Maximum travel of 450 mm.
• Accommodates samples up to 600 mm high.
• Test area of 800 × 800 mm.
• Dynamic display of force, deformation and results.
• Integrated computerized system requiring no external computer.
• High-performance motor and dual precision ball screws.
• Overload protection and maximum travel limit.
• Automatic operating alerts.
• Windows-like interface with keyboard and mouse.
• Four USB ports and two network ports.
• Optional compatibility with GMP and DataShield™.

Applications

Suitable for determining the compression strength and stacking capacity of corrugated cardboard boxes, honeycomb boxes and packaging used for storage and transport.

It also allows testing of plastic containers, paper drums, paper boxes, IBC containers and other hollow containers.

The C611M Box Compression Tester facilitates quality control, comparison of packaging designs and optimization of storage and distribution conditions.
