The equipment is designed to give an accurate and reliableindication of the resistance offered by the packaging materials to puncture.
Useful for testing a wide range of materials from thin papers to thick boards and similar materials.
The puncture resistance of paper boards is measured as the energy required to force a puncture head of specific design through a test piece of board under specified Condition.
The test specimen is clamped between two horizontal plates in each of which is a triangular hole.Â
The Puncture Tester has a very heavy chest iron stand in order to avoid disturbing vibrations during a test.
