Compression test on cups, buckets and basins (temperature range - 40 up to + 120 °C)
DIN EN ISO 12048 analogue; on unfilled cups, bowls etc.; (filled packages with extra charge); determination of Fmax with v= 10 mm/min at first buckling of the specimen. Smaller packages (approx max 100 * 100 * 100 mm³) can be testet a temperature range from - 40 to +120° C also (additional charge!).
In short — AI-generated
This test determines the mechanical stability of empty cups, bowls, and basins by applying vertical pressure at a constant speed of 10 mm/min. The test identifies the maximum force (Fmax) at the point of initial buckling, with optional temperature-controlled testing available between -40 °C and +120 °C for smaller containers.
The resulting Fmax value indicates the structural integrity and load-bearing capacity of the packaging under compressive stress. This data helps developers ensure that containers can withstand stacking and handling forces during transport and storage without collapsing.
