Internal Bond Tester

The Scott Internal Bond Tester is used to measure the internal bonding strength of paper or paper board, by causing a high speed rupture in the Z direction of the test piece. The test results correlate with substrate failures that occur during printing and conversion.

The dynamic nature of the Internal Bond Test gives a much clear idea of how a substrate will resist the Z-directional forces (in many printing and converting processes) than the static tests done on Universal Testing Machines. Complies with Tappi T 569.

Used primarily to examine blistering of coated papers, picking, de-lamination of multiply materials and the effects of additives and beating at pulp stock preparation.

It is microprocessor controlled and has been extensively re-engineered by Huygen to produce a unit that eliminates the errors inherent in the previously available analogue units.

Complies with the new Tappi Standard on Internal Bond Testing.

Accurate and very repeatable results.

• Electronically controlled, user selectable pressing time.
• Magnetic pendulum release for positive positioning and repeatable drops.
• Canted, heavy pedestal with improved bearings
• Push button, pneumatic sample clamping
• Clutched, gear-driven tape dispenser.
• Calibration weight set and slide for regular calibration checks.
