Overview of the Crush Tester

The Crush Tester is a cutting-edge device designed to measure the strength of corrugated materials, including ring crush strength (RCT), edge crush strength (ECT), and flat crush strength (FCT). This Tester also evaluates pin adhesion (PAT), corrugating medium strength (CMT), and corrugated crush strength (CCT) of base paper. Widely used in the packaging industry, it ensures material quality with precision.
