GT-6014-AM3
MIT Folding Endurance Tester

The GT-6014-AM3 is specifically designed to determine the folding endurance of paper and cardboard.
The specimen, held under tension by the upper clamp and subjected to repeated backward and forward folding by the lower clamp, is folded until fracture occurs. The number of folds required to break the specimen is recorded to evaluate its folding endurance.
The GT-6014-AM3 is specifically designed to determine the folding endurance of paper materials. It simulates repeated folding under real-world conditions to assess their ability to withstand folding.

Applicability:Well-suited for production, quality assurance, and research in paper and cardboard applications.

Specimen securing clamps:The two ends of the specimen are secured with upper and lower clamps, ensuring stability during testing.

Tensioning clamp:With tension applied by the clamp, the specimen is subjected to a specific stress during testing, simulating real-world conditions under tension.

Repeated folding:The lower clamp features backward and forward folding, replicating the way paper or cardboard folds in real-world conditions.

Fold counter:Automatically records the number of folds, ensuring accurate test results and minimizing human error.

Quality assurance:Helps manufacturers verify that their paper or cardboard products meet specific standards or testing requirements, ensuring the required level of folding endurance.

Product design improvement:Provides valuable insights into the folding endurance of paper or cardboard materials during product development, assisting manufacturers in improving product and material design.

Standard conformity:Ensures that products meet industry standards and satisfy quality expectations in the market.
