Paper Stiffness Tester Taber Type For Laboratory Use

The Taber Type Stiffness Tester is a precision instrument designed to evaluate the stiffness and resilient qualities of various materials, including paper, plastics, cardboard, light metallic sheets, foil, and other flexible materials with significant bending resistance. It provides critical measurements essential for assessing the suitability of materials for packaging, printing, and other industrial applications.

How It Works:
The test involves securing one end of the sample in a clamp, while a force is applied to bend the material to a specified angle. The maximum force required to bend the test piece is recorded and displayed on the graduated scale, giving a precise measure of stiffness.

Applications:

• Testing stiffness of paper, cardboard, and plastics
• Evaluation of light metallic sheets and foil
• Ensuring material suitability for packaging, printing, and industrial use

Salient Features:

• Wide Measuring Range: 0–1000 stiffness units, accommodating a broad variety of materials.
• Accurate Results: Measures the maximum force needed to bend the material to the desired angle, providing reliable stiffness readings.
• Triple Shear Cutter: Included for precise preparation of test specimens.
• Imported Gear Motor: Ensures smooth and consistent operation during testing.
