PIRA CREASE & BOARD STIFFNESS TESTER
Measures board stiffness and crease recovery. It gives
board manufacturers, printers and packing companies the ability to predict
the ‘runability’ of a sample board or finished carton before
committing valuable materials or machine time.
Board Stiffness and Crease Recovery are key characteristics that affect
the running performance of cartons on high speed packaging machines.
The Carton Crease Proofer allows the user to produce production quality crease samples without committing valuable machine time.
Applications include: Board manufacturers, Ink and coating makers, Converters, Packaging development, Packaging manufacture.
Can be used to identify a crease with optimum mechanical properties and cosmetic appearance.
