Bending stiffness (BS) is one of the two most important mechanical parameters of corrugated
board. The second is edge crush resistance (ECT). Both are used in many analytical …

The optimal selection of the composition of corrugated cardboard dedicated to specific
packaging structures is not an easy task. The use of lighter boards saves material, but at the …

The corrugated board packaging industry is increasingly using advanced numerical tools to
design and estimate the load capacity of its products. This is why numerical analyses are …

The aim of this paper is to study the mechanical behavior of corrugated board boxes,
focusing attention on the strength that the boxes are able to offer in compression under …

Recently, AI has been used in industry for very precise quality control of various products or
in the automation of production processes through the use of trained artificial neural …

Designing corrugated board packaging is a real challenge, especially when the packaging
material comes from multiple recycling. Recycling itself is a pro-ecological and absolutely …

When producing packaging from corrugated board, material weakening often occurs both
during the die-cutting process and during printing. While the analog lamination and/or …

The standard edge crush test (ECT) allows the determination of the crushing strength of the
corrugated cardboard. Unfortunately, this test cannot be used to estimate the compressive …

The edge crush test is the most popular laboratory test in the corrugated packaging industry.
It measures the edge crush resistance of a sample in the cross-fiber direction (CD), also …

The main objective of the study was to determine the effect of impregnation of the paper core
with acetylated starch on the mechanical properties and absorbed energy in the three-point …
