Bursting Strength Tester

The bursting strength tester Analogue model is a highly preferred tool for testing the bursting strength of various packaging materials such as filter cloth, uneven boxes and boards, industrial fabric, solid boards of fibers, paper boards, leather, Rexene, plastic films, and sheets. The bursting strength test helps in estimation of the quality of the materials and compares it with other similar materials. The bursting strength of the materials is tested against a specific amount of hydraulic pressure applied on the materials. Other models of this instruments are also available that are as follows - Digital Model, Pneumatic Model, Computerized Cum Digital Model with Manual Clamping,  Computerized Cum Digital Model with Pneumatic Clamping

It is a reliable index for measuring the strength of various materials and packaging products. The equipment is an ideal lab testing instrument to test the materials for their strength, performance and quality. The machine offers high ease of operation. The instrument is properly calibrated for reliable and accurate results. It is used widely in many industries, education institutions, laboratories etc.

There are two clamps present in the machine that are lower clamp and upper clamp. The test specimen is basically placed between both the clamps for strong hold. Adequate amount of pressure is applied on the specimen to avoid any slippage. The upper clamp has spiral grooves and the lower clamp has concentric grooves. The strength of the material is measured using the testing instrument in two ways that are manual exertion of pressure and automatic exertion of pressure through rubber structure. The area of application of pressure is circular in shape.

When there is application of force, the specimen collapses along with diaphragm. In this way the bursting strength of the material is duly calculated according to the maximum pressure required to be applied on the material for failure. The pressure applied is measured using a Pressure gauge.

Output

The strength calculated through this procedure is used to calculate the maximum weight that the material can bear before failure. This helps the engineers in deciding the factor of safety for the material. The results can be easily viewed and assessed in analogue meters, digital screens and in form of graphs of computer screen.
