What is one-corner, three-sides and six-surfaces box dropping test ?

1-What is a drop test?

Drop test is a test used to simulate the free drops a product may be subjected to during transportation.

This test is typically used to evaluate a product's ability to withstand accidental impact.

In a drop test, a product is typically placed at a height(usually determined based on the product's weight and likehood of falling)

and then allowed to fall freely.

A drop surface is usually a smooth,hard,rigid surface made of concrete or steel. If there are special requirements,

the type of drop surface can be determined based on product specifications or customer testing specifications.

Through the drop test, you can understand the impact that the product may receive in unexpected situations and evaluate the

toughness and stability of the product structure.

This kind of testing is usually done during the product design stage to ensure that the product can withstand the shocks

and drops it may encounter during transportation,storage and use.

2-What is the purpose of drop test?

The carton drop test is used to simulate factors such as drops that a product may experience during handling,

and to confirm the product's adaptability to resist throwing,presure,and falling during handling,transportation,storage.

3- What is the common standards for drop testing?

During packaging and transportation verification,drop tests appear in any standard.

One-corner,three-sides,six-surfaces are only inlcuded in ISTA1A / ISTA2A, GB/T4857, ASTM D4169.

ISTA Series all have drop tests, for large packags, you must choose the edge test. Different size packing, used different drop testing machine. When you want to buy a drop machine,please tell us the max size of the packing.

• This tester is with structure design of single arm and double poles: this design can conquer the accident dropping in the Pneumatic design when power is suddenly cut off or the air source is interrupted. It can be up and down stably and no trembling in the process of up and down.
• Support arm is with electronic control resetting, no need hand resetting, which can avoid the accident by hand resetting operation.
• Support arm is designed to be Electro withdrawing, and assisted by the pulling spring, which can make sure the testing samples can be free dropping impact by sudden withdrawing of the support arm, the difference between real impact speed and free dropping impact speed is within±1%.
• Multi-functional sample supporter: Can rapidly fix the different size package to test the package edges, sides and corners.
• Impacted base board is steel, and with flat surface.
• Control box:

1) Touch panel display design: Can display the current height of testing supporter in the process of up and down, the difference between real height and the display is within +/-2%.

2) Height setting control: Micro adjusting control, can rapidly set to the needed testing height.

• The improved drop tester has lower noise and more convenient to operation.
