Applications

To determine the crush resistance of concora flutes.

Details of working

The 152 x 12.7 mm  sample  prepared with  the  concora  flutter  is glued with the aid of the third hand and placed between the platens of the crush tester. In the CMT test, the f lutes are exposed to compression until they buckle. The force measured indicates up to which point the fibers recover or when they can no longer return to their original  shape and  how much force is required to finally break them
