Pneumatic Strip Cutter for ECT Tests — Precision in Specimen Preparation

Oct 3, 2013 | News

Pneumatic Strip Cutter for ECT

An essential tool for reliable ECT tests

The new Pneumatic Strip Cutter for ECT (Edge Crush Test) is designed to ensure precise, repeatable preparation of the specimens used in corrugated board edge-compression tests. This preliminary step is crucial to determine the true edge-crush resistance of packaging materials, and specimen quality directly affects result reliability. Thanks to pneumatic technology, cutting is fast and consistent, in line with international standards.

Controlled cutting and simplified operation

Operation is simple and intuitive: the operator inserts the corrugated sheet into the device and actuates the cutter via the pneumatic control. The mechanism guarantees constant pressure and cutting accuracy, eliminating edge irregularities and reducing the margin of error in subsequent tests. Ideal for paper-converting labs, quality departments and production areas, it offers high operating speed and reduces operator variability.

Compatible with leading ECT standards

The cutter is built to produce specimens that comply with ISO and TAPPI ECT standards. Dimensional accuracy is guaranteed, ensuring the validity of results obtained on Compression Testing Machines. Its robust construction and low maintenance make it a durable, reliable instrument for intensive use.
