    The Hanatek Crease and Board Stiffness Tester Identifying parts on the crease and board stiffness tester The crease and board stiffness tester measures the force required to hold a creased sample folded to 90 or a board sample bent through 15 , the results being taken after these conditions have been maintained for 15 seconds (s).

    The board will feel stiffer when the machine direction runs from hand to hand. The stiffness tester can be used to measure the force required to bend board in the machine and cross directions. CBT1.2 Operating Manual Issue C 28-05-19...
  • Page 12: Sample For Board Testing

    Machine direction Diagram 1 These samples are easily prepared using the sample templates supplied or any of the optional Hanatek sample preparation cutters. A number of samples should be tested in each direction. It is recommended that you test MD and CD separately to get accurate results and a crease to board stiffness ratio.
  • Page 13: Sample For Crease Testing

    38mm The CBT1 instrument is designed to test crease samples of the above size only. If it is not possible to cut a standard size sample the Hanatek CFA instrument will allow the user to test non standard size samples.
  • Page 14 MD board stiffness samples must be tested with MD crease stiffness samples. CD board stiffness samples must be tested with CD crease stiffness samples. More on this subject is below in the section, Interpretation of results. CBT1.2 Operating Manual Issue C 28-05-19...

    The Hanatek CBT tester automatically calculates the Crease/Board stiffness ratio giving quick and easy analysis or results.
  • Page 20 Should it be necessary to reduce crease stiffness for a particular board, then an optimum crease width should be selected which avoids visual defects in the folds. At this groove width, deeper impressions will reduce crease stiffness. CBT1.2 Operating Manual Issue C 28-05-19...
