The SS-21 determines the short span compression strength of papers (SCT) for quality control and R&D testing tasks.

The SCT is a key characteristic for liner and fl uting manufacturers as it infl uences strongly the stackability of a corrugated box.

This equipment is absolutely user friendly and reliable due to its built-in exclusive simple intuitive testing software as well to its rugged and accurate mechanical construction.

It offers complete statistical analysis, a parallel port for the connection of a local printer and a RS-232 serial port for the connection to a host computer for data transfer.

• Edgewise compression strength affects the stacking strength of a fi nished box
• Summation of compression strengths of the components correlate highly with combined board compressive strength
• By optimising the compression strength of the liners and the fl uting, it is possible to make boxes with the same strength using less fi bers

• Pneumatic clamps with built-in sample detection ensure an easy, safe and comfortable operation
• Clamps design prevent operator from touching the sample in the testing area
• Statistical analysis can be printed out
