Easy To Follow the Steps for Bursting Strength Test

  • Start the testing machine and turn on the main switch. The Load indicator might show some readings due to previous test values.
  • Set the pressure to ZERO and then Press the RESET button and the load indicator will show a zero reading.
  • Prepare the specimen of Cardboard, corrugated fiber sheet, or any other material you want to test with the minimum dimensions of 100 mm X 100 mm.
  • While preparing the specimen, make sure that there are no folds in the specimen.
  • Once the specimen will be placed accurately, then you can easily commence the test.
