Burst Tester Paper, Board or Corrugated

Burst Tester Paper, Board or Corrugated

Manufactured by Techlab Systems

This burst testing machine measures how much force paper, paper board, or corrugated board can withstand before it bursts. It performs a quick and easy bursting strength test, which is commonplace throughout the paper, board, and packaging industries.

CE marked and compatible with the T-LAB Laboratory Management System, this fast and powerful bursting strength tester has a sample clamping force of 7000 N maximum, adjustable by pneumatic regulator. It also has a configurable pumping flow rate of 170 ± 5 ml/min (corrugated cardboard) and 95 ± 5ml/min (paper).

The BT-10 Burst Tester (C, P, or C-100) comes as standard with LYNX software (for Burst Resistance and BEA tests), LYNX management module with basic statistics, and a laptop PC with Windows O.S.

Benefits

  • Measurement ranges: Model BT-10 / P for paper from 0 to 1500 kPa (other ranges available by special order), Model BT-10 / C for compact and corrugated cardboard from 0 to 5000 kPa, and Model BT-10 / C-100 for compact and corrugated cardboard from 0 to 10000 kPa.
  • Accuracy: +/- 1% of reading between 2% and 100% F.S.D.
  • Selection of the break detection level between 10% and 90% of the maximum value.
  • Numerical and Graphical data visualisation, with Readings in Units: kPa resolution every 0.2 kPa, Bars resolution every 0.002 Bar, Kg/cm2 resolution every 0.002 Kg / cm2, PSI resolution every 0.03 PSI.
  • Automatic test cycle with break detection and return to initial test position.
  • Maximum value memory.
  • Manual and automatic zeroing.
  • With data output via USB, for connection to a PC.
  • Maximum thickness of the sample to be tested of 12 m
