Drop Tester – Ensuring Packaging and Product Integrity

Introduction

In today’s fast-paced manufacturing and shipping industries, product safety during transportation is crucial. Damage during handling, stacking, or drops can lead to financial loss and customer dissatisfaction. The best way to ensure packaging durability and product integrity? A Drop Tester.

At Pacorr, we provide high-performance drop testing machines that simulate real-world impacts, helping manufacturers assess packaging strength and protect their products from accidental damage.

What is a Drop Tester?

A Drop Tester is a laboratory instrument designed to test how well a product or its packaging can withstand sudden impact caused by falls or drops. It recreates free-fall conditions to measure a material’s resistance to shock and mechanical stress.

The test is essential for:

• Packaging validation

• Transportation simulation

• Product design optimization

• Drop height resistance evaluation

• Compliance with international packaging standards

How Drop Testing Works

1. Product Placement: The item or packaging is placed on the drop platform.

2. Height Selection: A specific drop height is set, based on standards or custom requirements.

3. Drop Mechanism Activation: The platform releases, allowing the sample to free-fall onto a hard surface.

4. Impact Evaluation: The product is examined for damage, deformation, or packaging failure.

This process helps manufacturers determine if their packaging can protect contents during shipping and handling.
