In the development and quality control of packaging materials, impact resistance is a crucial parameter, particularly for food packaging, pharmaceutical packaging, and other consumer products. Ensuring that these products do not break or leak during transportation, storage, or use due to external impacts is essential. The GQ-D1 Falling Ball Impact Tester is designed to meet this need by accurately evaluating the impact resistance of various packaging materials, providing scientific data to support the production process.

Features and Advantages of the GQ-D1 Falling Ball Impact Tester

The GQ-D1 Falling Ball Impact Tester is specifically developed for testing the impact strength of food packaging hard sheets, solid pharmaceutical sheets, and plastic bottle caps. Unlike traditional electromagnetic-based impact testers, the GQ-D1 uses the principle of electrical repulsion, which effectively addresses the issues of high temperatures and residual magnetism that occur in traditional electromagnets. When electromagnetic devices are powered on, they generate high temperatures, and after power-off, residual magnetism can interfere with test accuracy. The GQ-D1, however, automatically releases any residual magnetism and prevents excessive heat generation, ensuring stable and reliable test results.

Testing Principle

The operation of the GQ-D1 Falling Ball Impact Tester is simple yet highly effective. During testing, the sample—whether it's a food packaging hard sheet, pharmaceutical sheet, or plastic bottle cap—is placed on the test platform. A steel ball of a specified weight is then dropped from a set height, and the resulting impact is delivered to the product. This simulates the external impacts that packaging materials might experience during real-world transportation or handling scenarios.

After the impact, the product’s appearance and potential damage are examined to assess whether the packaging material has been compromised. If the packaging is damaged or deformed, it indicates that the material's impact resistance is inadequate, and it may not be suitable for actual product packaging.

Applicable Standards and Wide Application

The GQ-D1 Falling Ball Impact Tester complies with several national and international standards, including GB/T 15267, GB/T 17876, YBB 0021-2005, and YBB 0020-2005. These standards primarily concern the performance requirements for food and pharmaceutical packaging materials. By using the GQ-D1, manufacturers can ensure that their packaging materials meet stringent safety and reliability requirements as specified in these standards.

Whether in the food industry, pharmaceutical sector, or consumer goods packaging, the GQ-D1 can provide accurate and reliable data. For food packaging manufacturers, impact resistance testing helps prevent leaks or spoilage due to packaging damage during transport. For pharmaceutical packaging, especially for solid drugs, impact resistance is critical to avoid leaks or damage that could compromise the product’s effectiveness.

Technical Parameters and User-Friendly Operation

The GQ-D1 Falling Ball Impact Tester features a straightforward interface and a high-precision measurement system. The testing process is simple: users place the sample on the test platform, set the weight of the steel ball and drop height, and then start the test. The instrument will automatically perform the test and generate a detailed report, enabling users to interpret the results quickly.

Regarding technical specifications, the GQ-D1 supports various steel ball weights and drop heights, providing flexibility for testing different types of packaging materials. The accuracy and reproducibility of test results are high, making it suitable for assessing a wide range of packaging materials' performance.

Conclusion

As market demands for packaging materials continue to rise, the GQ-D1 Falling Ball Impact Tester stands out with its advanced technology and high-precision testing capabilities. It has become an invaluable tool for quality control in the food, pharmaceutical, and other industries. By using this instrument, manufacturers can effectively enhance the impact resistance of their packaging, ensuring the safety and stability of products during real-world use. If you're looking for an efficient and reliable impact-testing device, the GQ-D1 is undoubtedly an excellent choice.
