Practical packaging tests in the PackLab\u00ae<\/h2>\n
In the IfV PackLab\u00ae test laboratory, a wide range of test equipment is available to verify the practical suitability of packaging. In addition to the universal testing machine with 10 kN tensile or compressive force for materials and smaller packaging, the electromechanical compression press with 200 kN compressive force is primarily used to test stacks for block storage or pallet certification, but with its feed rate of 0.2 to 500 mm\/min it also allows other tests to be carried out. To simulate the Shock sensitivity<\/strong> of goods in case processes and for determining the Shock absorption<\/strong> A shock test system is available for testing packaging cushions. Impacts and accelerations are recorded with three-dimensional acceleration sensors to provide information on the quality of the packaging. This system is most frequently used to test shipping packaging to qualify it for safe transport in accordance with the guidelines\/specifications of CEP service providers such as UPS or DHL.<\/p> The possibility of simulating vibration and impact loads is of great practical relevance for simulating transport loads in all modes of transport. Vibration tests<\/strong> allow conclusions to be drawn about the stability of a stack, the effectiveness of the LE fuse or the durability of screw and solder connections during transport. In addition to a vibration table in the climate chamber - and according to the IfV, this is unique - another electrodynamic vibration table is available for harmonic and stochastic vibrations with a frequency spectrum of 5 to 2,000 Hz, which also enables horizontal vibration and shock excitation. PackLab\u00ae also has an electrodynamic vibration table for harmonic and stochastic vibrations with a frequency spectrum of 5 to 000 Hz. Horizontal impact testing system<\/strong> (\u201einclined plane\u201c), which allows analyses of the effect of impact loads on the product, packaging and LE securing.<\/p>\n From the outset, the generalisable findings from the audit and other IfV work were the starting point for Publications<\/strong> or flowed into Standards and guidelines projects<\/strong>, The IfV is also a member of the VDI Society for Production and Logistics' expert committee 308.1 Packaging Logistics. In addition to carrying out, analysing and documenting packaging tests, the IfV also offers Consultations<\/strong> on customer-internal packaging processes, structures and quantities, for the optimisation of existing packaging systems and the development of new ones. In addition to packaging tests on behalf of industry, the PackLab\u00ae test facilities are also used for publicly funded research, with the content ranging from the development of packaging and load carriers to the optimisation of AutoID elements and the testing of LE and load securing devices. For example, the effects of climate on the quality of anti-slip mats and the performance of transponders were analysed for the first time.<\/p>\n Institute for Packaging Technology of the VVL e. V.
