For the packaging industries, it is always critical to perform some rigorous testing of materials as well as products to ensure that the packaging of the products is always having the best quality. The products must be packaged properly to ensure that they remain safe and fresh for a long time. The strength and quality of the packaging materials always hold a great responsibility for the safety of the products. There are many sorts of packaging in the market used for different kinds of products such as corrugated boxes, Concora Medium Fluter airtight containers, PET bottles, polythene bags, etc. All these kind of products undergo proper quality testing procedures so that it can be-be ensured that the customers get only the high-quality products, and the products remain safe during the whole course of transportation and warehousing. Below are some of the discussed testing methods used for quality assurance of packaging products in the industries. Concora Medium Fluter ...

The ring crush test (RCT) is an optimal instrument used to evaluate the ring crush resistance of a paper strip formed into a ring with some standard length and width. This test is performed to the strict standards of ISO 12192 and TAPPI T 822.  The ring crush tester is pretty similar to the test of short-span compression. The strength of the liner or fluting is determined both in the machine direction which placed perpendicular to it. It is mandatory that force application is placed perfectly to the specimen in the exact perpendicular while performing these tests. The outcome of this test highly relies on proper specimen preparation. Specimen and guides must be placed exactly parallel to ensure highly precise determination of ring crush strength. As the ring crush test gives information about how specimen buckling acts like be rather than crush behavior, it is being replaced by the short-span compression test these times. Ring Crush Test (RCT) with a professional...
