ADL-PCT3000A Crush Tester is a touch screen control paperboard crush strength tester produced by our company. The paperboard, carton factory and carton manufacturer are usually used to detect the edge crush strength (ECT) and flate crush strength (FCT) of corrugated board, adhesive strength (PAT) and flate crush strength (CMT), edge compressive strength (CCT) of diameter less than 60mm paper core. The instrument is an ideal auxiliary testing tool for papermaking enterprises, paperboard manufacturers, carton manufacturers, carton users and quality supervision and inspection departments.

Application Range

Paper, cardboard, paper core, base paper

Application Function

Measure RCT of paper 0.10~0.58mm thickness, ECT and PAT for corrugated board, FCT for single flute corrugated board, and CCT & CMT for corrugated paper
