Stiffness Tester Model: S0016 The Stiffness Tester evaluates the flexibility and bending resistance of paper and paperboard in both machine and cross machine directions. iDMinstruments The sample is clamped in the pivot block to allow for left and right measurement of the bending resistance at the free end of the sample in grams. For standard samples, the bending resistance is measured at a pivot angle of 15°. For specimens that break or crease at 15° (eg paperboard), the bending resistance is measured at a pivot angle of 7.5°. Applications: • Paper • Light Metallic Foil • Lamin ated Plastic • Cardboard • Wire • Other flexible materials up to 5.5mm (0.219inch) that do not exceed 10000 Taber Stiffness Units. Benefits: Standards: • RS-232 • Easy to use • TAPPI T489 • Calibration Weight • Fast results • TAPPI T556 Range Accuracy Digital Display Bending An gle Test Time Sample Size

Stiffness Tester The top of a 38mm x 70mm (1.5inch x 2.75inch) sample is clamped, and the bottom of the sample rests against the bottom blades. The blades are then adjusted to just make contact with the sample, then the pivot block is rotated at 15° or 7.5° deflection in either the left or right direction, and the resulting bending resistance measured at the bottom of the sample is displayed in g/cm. Testing Optional Accessories: Crease & Stiffness Cutter Model C0016 The Crease & Stiffness cutter dependably and reliably cuts accurate samples of 38mm x 70mm (1.5’ x 3’) for use with the...
