Application of Top Load Tester

Load testing is essential for ensuring the structural integrity and reliability of packaging containers such as bottles, jars, drums, trays, cartons, and boxes. It verifies that these containers can withstand the stresses of stacking, shipping, and storage without collapsing or deforming, thereby protecting the product inside. This testing helps meet industry standards, preventing product damage and loss, and ultimately saving costs associated with returns and replacements. Additionally, it aids in optimizing packaging design and material usage, ensuring a balance between strength and efficiency, while maintaining the brand’s reputation for quality and reliability.

Application areas

Packaging industry: Applicable to various packaging containers, such as beverage bottles, food cans, chemical barrels, electronic product packaging boxes, etc.
Logistics and warehousing: Ensure the safety of packaging containers during transportation and storage.
Quality control: Used for quality control during the production process to ensure that each batch of products meets the standards.

Unique Programs of of Top Load Tester

Peak: To measure the container crush/compressive load
Fixed Deformation: To measure the load when container is at a deformation
Fixed Load: To measure how sample deforms under a certain load
Single Compression: To compress the container once and then analyze
Cycle Compression: To compress the container in cycles and then analyze

Principle of of Top Load Tester

Top load testing involves placing the container on the testing platform, aligning it properly, and applying a compressive force from the top. The force is increased gradually until the container deforms or collapses. Tester measure the applied force and deformation, recording the maximum force the container withstands or the deformation the container shows at a constant load. The data is analyzed to assess the container’s strength and performance against predefined standards.
