How to Test Paper and Cardboard Using a Texture Analyser Image Credit: Stable Micro Systems Ltd Corrugated cardboard is used all over the world for strong, cheap, and light recyclable packaging. Many boxes are made to certain customers’ demands, and the aim of these tests is to maximize strength (meeting the customer’s needs) while minimizing costs from component materials and weight. Strength properties can be quantified using either imitative or more traditional, fundamental methods. Unlike traditional crush testing equipment, which only records the maximum force during a test, Stable Micro Systems Texture Analysers, along with Exponent software, allow full graph analysis.
