Packaging Materials Research and Development
Along with the retail ecommerce growth in recent years, especially since 2020 due to the Covid-19, consumption of packaging materials is increasing as well, suggesting on the issues such as packaging material cost reduction, cutting down on excessive packaging while keeping safety of products, shifting to ecological materials to achieve the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) by 2030.
Shinyei’s Dynamic Compression Tester for Cushioning Materials ACST series with automatic controller and analysis system helps you to evaluate characteristics of the cushioning materials (cardboard boxes, expanded polystyrene, urethane foam etc.), and identify the borderline to keep the products’ safety, by the shock response acceleration and displacement waveform.
With the dedicated Data Analysis Software CCT-Win, you can find the characteristics of cushioning material is analyzed as stress-strain curve, cushion curve, cushion factor, etc., for practical use in the protective packaging design. For any further assistance do not hesitate to contact us. Reference Standards : ISO 4651, MIL-C-26861-87, ASTM D 1596-02 (2009), JIS Z 0235-2002, and others.
