Short Span Compression Tester

<p>The <strong>Short Span Compression Tester</strong> measures the compression strength of paper over a <strong>short span (SCT)</strong>. It is compact, precise, and easy to use, ideal for laboratory and quality control in production. It allows for quick and repeatable tests in both <strong>MD</strong> and <strong>CD</strong>, with immediate batch and sample height setup (standard 15 mm). </p> <ul> <li>Applicable to papers and boards with a wide range of basis weights</li> <li>Quick test change with guided settings (batch, direction, height)</li> <li>Stable and comparable results for R&D and batch control</li> </ul>

<p>Designed to ensure alignment and repeatability, the system uses self-leveling clamps and controlled jaw distance. Data acquisition is high-resolution, with automatic calculation of indices at the end of the test. </p> <ul> <li>Load cell up to <strong>1000 N</strong>, resolution <strong>0.01 N</strong></li> <li><strong>Clamping force</strong>: 2300 ± 500 N</li> <li><strong>Jaw distance</strong>: 0.7 ± 0.05 mm; <strong>stroke</strong>: 0.5 mm</li> <li><strong>Speed</strong>: 3 ± 0.5 mm/min</li> <li>Self-leveling clamps for uniform and repeatable grip</li> </ul>

<p>Designed for integration into corporate digital workflows, the tester offers an immediate interface and export options for result traceability.</p> <ul> <li><strong>Touchscreen</strong> with intuitive menus and test templates</li> <li><strong>Connectivity</strong>: USB, RS-232/RS-485, MicroSD</li> <li>Data <strong>export</strong> in tabular formats (e.g., Excel/CSV)</li> <li>Automatic calculation of compression strength and coefficient of variation</li> <li>Applicable to all sectors: paper, packaging, printing, converting</li> </ul>
