The ergonomically designed OCT fits comfortably in the hand and operates like a computer mouse. It measures and records dimensions, angles, and symmetry of carton crease, bead and formed box and quickly assesses the multi-layer construction of all types of printed or non-printed carton board, paperboard and waxed carton product. 

The company also exhibited its laboratory carton tester (LCT) that can test a whole carton up to 530mm. It measures crease strength and box-forming force for every degree of deflection. It also measures slip resistance and friction properties to eliminate carton sticking and feeding problems during high speed packing. A portable version is available for tests between sites.

The Cerulean carton crease testers come pre-programmed with analysis and reporting software to provide easy comparison between sites, batches and carton types. They help ensure consistency of supply for carton manufacturers – reducing waste and returns.
