IDM Instruments has released a crease bend tester for cardboard and corrugated cardboard. It is used mainly to monitor scoring equipment to ensure box performance, by measuring the bending resistance of creased board at the time of folding at the crease. The maximum force required to bend the sample board is displayed on the digital display.
The crease bend tester is claimed to be the only one of its kind that uses a pneumatic sample clamp to hold a 300 mm wide sample in place while a motorised load bar applies pressure to the sample on the other side of the crease.
Corrugated converters use the crease bend tester to aid in making adjustments to improve the quality, thus ensuring the end user will have boxes that run effectively on their production line.
