A box compression test is used to measure the compressive strength or compression strength of corrugated boxes or cartons according to international standards. The corrugated box is made of corrugated paperboard sheets called flutes.

The test tester is designed to perform compression tests to determine the strength of a corrugated box. The test machine performs this test by dropping weights on a sample of corrugated boxes or cartons.

To understand how the test machine works, let's take a look at a sample of the machine. It includes two Box Compression Tester main parts, namely, the top plate (or the platform) and the base frame. The top plate is where the samples will be placed. This is where the weight will be dropped. It is designed in such a way that the platform will be attached to the base frame. The base frame provides the support to the top plate and the weights.

When the top plate and base frame are attached to each other, the entire system is ready to perform a compression test. When the test starts, the tester will raise the weight from the base frame until the top plate contacts the top surface of the sample. The height of the top plate depends on the size of the sample being tested. Once the top plate and the sample are in contact, the tester will apply pressure.
