Overview
The Core Compression Strength Tester is a high-precision laboratory testing instrument developed for determining the radial compression (core collapse) strength of paper cores, tubes, and cones used in the paper, film, textile, and flexible packaging industries. The QGI system is designed to simulate real operational stress conditions by applying controlled compressive force to cylindrical cores, allowing manufacturers to accurately evaluate structural integrity and load-bearing performance.
This motorized compression testing unit operates through a precision piston-driven mechanism that applies gradual and uniform pressure to the test specimen. The equipment is equipped with interchangeable clamping jaws and an adjustable testing platform, enabling testing of cores of different diameters and thicknesses. The maximum peak compression force generated during the test is displayed on a high-accuracy digital load indicator, ensuring reliable, repeatable, and industry-compliant test results.
Engineered for durability and measurement accuracy, the QGI Core Compression Strength Tester supports quality control laboratories, packaging manufacturers, and paper mills in maintaining consistent core strength and performance standards.
