What Does A Box Compression Tester Measure?

A box compression tester measures the ability of a corrugated box to withstand the compressive forces during storage, stacking, and transportation. It applies pressure to the box until it deforms or collapses, recording the maximum force endured. This test helps evaluate the strength and durability of packaging materials, ensuring they can protect the contents effectively. Box compression testers are crucial in quality control and product development for industries relying on sturdy packaging, such as logistics, food and beverage, and manufacturing. Manufacturers and suppliers offer various models with different specifications to meet diverse testing needs across industries.
