Abstract

To verify the cushion performance of transport packaging, two traditional drop test methods – free fall and controlled shock tests – and a traditional simulation method are often used. However, it is difficult to assure the safety of a test product when the traditional drop test method is applied, and results from the traditional simulation method are not sufficiently accurate to be used to test packaging material. Therefore, we propose a new test method called ‘the hybrid drop test’ by integrating the traditional drop test and simulation methods. The hybrid drop test ensures the safety of the test product and improves test efficiency. The results of the verification test show that this new drop test method can be applied to test the cushion performance of pulp mould transport packaging. Copyright © 2013 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
