Applications

• Paper and Pulp Industry
• Corrugated Box and Packaging Industry
• Paper Testing Laboratories
• Quality Control Departments
• Research and Development Laboratories

Working Principle

The test specimen is clamped securely over a rubber diaphragm. Hydraulic pressure is applied automatically and uniformly until the specimen bursts. The maximum pressure at the moment of burst is sensed by a pressure transducer and displayed digitally as the bursting strength.

Advantages

• High accuracy and repeatability of results
• Fully automatic testing reduces operator effort
• Improves efficiency in quality control processes
• Reliable performance for laboratory applications
• Ensures consistency in testing standards

Purpose

Used to determine the maximum hydrostatic pressure a material can withstand before rupture. It is a digital alternative to the analog Mullen tester, providing precise readings and eliminating human error.

Working Principle

Based on the Mullen Method. A specimen is clamped between plates, and hydraulic pressure expands a rubber diaphragm. A pressure transducer detects the burst point and the system records the peak value.

Main Components

• Digital Controller with display, reset, and memory
• Clamping Unit (manual or pneumatic)
• Elastic Rubber Diaphragm (1–2 mm thickness)
• Hydraulic System with motor and glycerin reservoir
• Safety Switch to prevent over-stretching

Operating Procedure

1. Power ON and wait 2 minutes
2. Press TARE/ZERO to calibrate
3. Place sample on diaphragm
4. Clamp the sample securely
5. Press START to begin test
6. Machine applies pressure automatically
7. Peak value is displayed after burst
8. Reset machine for next test

Maintenance

• Check diaphragm regularly for wear
• Perform blank burst test for diaphragm condition
• Clean clamping plates after use
• Ensure no glycerin leakage
