HD-A501-500 Small Carton Compression Strength Tester

Product Introduction
The HD-A501-500 Small Carton Compression Strength Tester is designed to evaluate the compressive strength, deformation, and stacking performance of packaging materials and containers. It is suitable for corrugated cartons, honeycomb panel boxes, paper tubes, paper boxes, paper drums, and other packaging products.
The tester can also be used for compression testing of plastic drums, including food-oil and mineral-water containers, as well as IBC containers and other compatible packaging vessels. Its touchscreen control, high-resolution force measurement, selectable force units, and built-in micro printer support efficient quality inspection in packaging production and testing laboratories.
The HD-A501-500 is designed with reference to multiple packaging and transport test standards, including ASTM D642, TAPPI T804, and relevant GB/T standards.

Performance Features
• Wide packaging applications: Tests cartons, paper tubes, honeycomb panel boxes, paper drums, plastic drums, and compatible IBC containers.
• Selectable load capacity: Available with a 500 kg or 1000 kg load capacity, depending on the selected domestic load cell.
•   High-resolution force analysis: Load analysis resolution of 1/100,000.
•   High measurement accuracy: Specified accuracy of ≤0.5%.
•   Touchscreen operation: Simplifies test setup and operation.
•   Flexible force units: Switches between kgf, N, and lbf.
• Compression and stacking tests: Evaluates compressive resistance, deformation, and stacking-related performance.
•   Built-in micro printer: Supports convenient on-site printing of test results.
•   Adjustable test speed: Speed range of 10–130 mm/min.

Working Principle
The HD-A501-500 uses a compression testing method to evaluate the load-bearing performance of packaging specimens.
1. Specimen placement: The carton, paper tube, or other suitable container is positioned between the compression platens.
2. Parameter setting: The operator configures the test conditions through the touchscreen and selects the appropriate force unit.
3. Compression loading: The machine applies a controlled compressive force at the selected speed.
4. Force measurement: The load cell measures the force applied to the specimen as compression progresses.
5. Performance evaluation: The test data are used to assess compressive strength, deformation, or stacking performance according to the selected test procedure.
6. Result output: Test results can be printed using the built-in micro printer.
Test settings and specimen preparation should follow the applicable standard and the requirements of the packaging being evaluated.
