Subject : Brief explanation of Vibration Tests.
1) Rotary vibration.
Where the motion of the package is left - up - right - down.
From a center position the package will move left 12.5mm then up 12.5mm then right 12.5
mm and then down 12.5mm. Its like performing an Aarti (Puja).
The product gets an effective 1 inch up-down displacement / throw. But its not a true
vertical linear bump.
Its like riding a camel.
This confirms to ASTM D999 for loose load vibrations.
This is to be done on a single package and the package is required to bounce.
Test is very aggressive but the only problem is that we were unable to achieve speeds of
more than 3 hz (180 RPM). While the product usually starts to bounce between 210-250
RPM. So it doesnot fully confirm to ASTM D 999.
We used to make this machine until 2015.
Technology is great. Prospects are huge. Price is the biggest deterrent. And people need
more education on this front.
People may say that they are doing a dynamic compression-vibration test by stacking.
But the fact remains that for Box quality you have a Box Compression Test (BCT).
The vibration test is the final test encompassing the Scuff Test, leakage test, and product fragility
tests.
But its surely NOT a Box test.
