The Box Compression Tester 450mm is a compact instrument designed to evaluate the compression strength and stacking load capacity of smaller boxes and corrugated cartons up to 400 mm in size. Its compact testing platform allows manufacturers to test smaller packaging materials while benefiting from a robust construction and practical features.

The instrument displays compression strength values digitally, helping corrugated box manufacturers assess packaging performance and maintain consistent quality control. It is suitable for use in the paper and packaging industry.

Test Standards

The instrument can be configured for testing in accordance with the following standards, depending on the applicable test method and instrument configuration:

• ASTM D642

• ASTM D4169

• TAPPI T 804

• ISO 12048

• JIS Z 0212
