Bending Resistance Testing Equipment

Thwing-Albert has various equipment for testing bend resistance. Our vast selection of instrumentation includes:

1270 PCA Score Bend & Opening Force Tester

The 1270 PCA opening force and score bend tester evaluates the force required to bend and open scored paper carton and paperboard and measures the spring back. This tester is useful for sealing and gluing operations to maintain quality across packages and producers. The data can be used to correctly configure the machinery. This fixture complies with TAPPI T577.

VantageNX Tensile Testing Machine: 

Our VantageNX Testing Machine is an important tool to evaluate quality tests including tensile strength, mechanical burst strength, elongation and compressibility/softness in tissue paper. Grips and fixtures set up the machine to complete various tests to meet TAPPI, ASTM, ISO and other industry standards.

Bending Fixtures

3 & 4 Point Bending Fixture – TA103: The TA103 Bending Fixture provides 50 kilonewtons (kN) of force for three-point and four-point flexural bend tests. Its width is 50 millimeters (mm).

3 & 4 Point Bending Fixture – TA22: The TA22 Bending Fixture conducts three- and four-point bend tests at 50 kN or 250 kN. This standard bending device has universal uses for testing materials.

3 & 4 Point Bending Fixture – TA238: The TA238 Bending Fixture completes three- and four-point bend tests on aluminum or steel to measure its flexural bending properties.

Bending Resistance Tester (RL-BRT-A)

The RL-BRT-A Bending Resistance Tester tests the stiffness and bending resistance of wet and dry paperboard and paper materials. This instrument assesses the sheet quality and fiber properties, as the fiber bulk and dimensions relate to stiffness. The bending resistance tester holds the sample at a certain angle and begins testing when the load cell touches the sample. It complies with standards from ISO, SCAN, DIN, TAPPI and NFQ.

Gurley 4171 Bending/Stiffness Tester

The Gurley 4171 Bending/Stiffness Tester measures the force needed to test the resistance and stiffness of materials up to 15 sizes and 6 mm thick. It produces repeatable and controlled conditions for reliable measurements.  

FLAT SHEET MODEL 4171S
Digital Bending Resistance/Stiffness Tester with RS-232 serial communications port and parallel clamp.  
This model meets industry standards TAPPI T543 and ASTM D6125-97.

TUBING MODEL 4171T
Digital Bending Resistance/Stiffness Tester with RS-232 communications port, parallel and tubing clamp assemblies.
