Hanatek Compact Friction Tester

The Compact Friction Tester provides detailed information of the slip characteristics of packaging material.

Surface slip is a key factor when printing, erecting or filling packaging materials on an automatic line. Friction parameters help the manufacturer understand how the finish of a blown film or printed carton can influence the feeding and running speed.

In addition to these values the CFT produces detailed force graphs and statistics of multiple tests that can be printed to date / time stamped label (optional extra).

Hanatek Crease & Board Stiffness Tester CBT1

The Hanatek Crease & Board Stiffness Tester CBT1 gives board manufacturers, printers and packing companies the ability to predict the ‘runability’ of a sample board or finished carton before committing valuable materials or machine time.

Board stiffness and crease recovery are key characteristics that affect the running performance of cartons on high speed packaging machines.

Board stiffness and crease quality affect the running performance of cartons on high speed packaging machines.

The Hanatek Crease & Board Stiffness Tester CBT3 allows you to predict the ‘runability’ of a packaging substrate, compare batches of product and evaluate the suitability of alternative materials.

Hanatek – Carton Force Analyser

The Hanatek CFA measures the forces that limit the running speed of folding box board packaging. By measuring the stiffness of the substrate and crease bending resistance the user can optimise cartons for faster running and packaging speeds. The instrument allows individual creases to be analysed identifying problem areas in packaging design or manufacture.

Hanatek FT3 Film Thickness Gauge

The Hanatek FT3 Film Thickness Gauge is specifically designed to quickly and accurately measure the thickness of cast and blown films.

The instrument has an auto cycle mode that allows you to quickly check a large section of film for thickness variation.

Hanatek Rub & Abrasion Tester RT4

The RT4 rub and abrasion tester was designed by Hanatek to increase the efficiency and repeatability of rub proof testing.

The instrument is used for testing the ink/print, marking and rub resistance of cartons, films and commercial printed material.

It is also used for checking the cure and adhesion of UV inks and coatings.

This comparative test works by abrading a printed sample against a reference material under known conditions. The results can be used to identify alternative substrates, better ink and coating formulations or the suitability of finished cartons, films or printed books, magazines and promotional materials.

The instrument is supplied as standard with the felt measuring head and pad. This is suitable for the face to face (printed surface to printed
surface) method described in BS 3110 and also the printed surface to reference material such as Mellotex.

Alternative measuring heads/pads are available for conducting:

– Abrasion Test. This test is to check the through cure of coatings and UV varnish. This test will mimic the effect of transportation on printed
material.
– Wet Rub Test. This test checks for coating resistance to water/solvent.

Operated with an intuitive touch screen, the configuration of test parameters in incredibly fast!

The cycle time for abrasion tests is pre-programmed, allowing the test to run unsupervised.

Hanatek – Universal Sample Cutter

 The Hanatek Universal Sample Cutter has been designed for the simple cutting of samples for the packaging industry. Dies can be configured to cut samples for most test types including: friction, tensile, grammage, O2 permeability, CO2 permeability, WVTR, rub resistance, carton crease, carton stiffness and many more.
