Electrodynamic Shaker Table Performs Random Vibration Testing for
ISTA/ASTM Package Testing
In the competitive world of product packaging, ensuring that
packages can withstand the rigors of transportation is essential.
Our advanced Electrodynamic Shaker Table has been specifically
engineered to conduct random vibration testing in line with ISTA
(International Safe Transit Association) and ASTM (American Society
for Testing and Materials) standards, providing a reliable solution
for evaluating the integrity of product packages.
1. The Significance of ISTA/ASTM Package Testing
ISTA and ASTM have established comprehensive testing standards for
packaging to simulate real - world transportation conditions.
Random vibration is a key aspect of these tests as it mimics the
erratic vibrations that packages experience during transit, whether
on trucks, trains, ships, or airplanes. By subjecting packages to
these tests, manufacturers can identify potential weaknesses in
their packaging design, such as insufficient cushioning, improper
sealing, or unstable stacking. This helps in reducing product
damage during shipping, minimizing returns, and ultimately
enhancing customer satisfaction.
2. Key Features of Our Electrodynamic Shaker Table
Precise Random Vibration Generation
Our shaker table is equipped with state - of - the - art technology
that enables it to generate highly accurate random vibration
profiles. It can produce vibrations over a wide frequency range,
typically from 1 Hz to 2000 Hz. This broad frequency span allows
for the replication of the diverse vibration frequencies
encountered during transportation. The amplitude of vibrations is
precisely controllable, with a maximum acceleration of up to 100 g
and a maximum displacement of ±50 mm. This precision ensures that
packages are tested under conditions that closely resemble their
actual transit environment.
ISTA/ASTM Compliance
Every aspect of our electrodynamic shaker table has been carefully
calibrated and designed to meet the strict requirements of ISTA and
ASTM random vibration testing. The shaker table can execute all the
necessary test procedures as defined by these standards, including
the specific vibration spectra, test durations, and loading
conditions. This compliance gives manufacturers the confidence to
certify that their packages meet industry - recognized standards
for safe transit.
Customizable Test Profiles
We understand that different packages may require unique testing
conditions. Our shaker table allows for the creation of highly
customizable test profiles. Engineers can set the specific
frequency distribution, amplitude levels, and test duration
according to the requirements of the package being tested. Whether
it's a small, delicate package or a large, heavy - duty one, the
shaker table can be programmed to meet the exact needs of the test.
High - Quality Test Platform
The test platform of the electrodynamic shaker table is designed to
securely hold packages during testing. It features a flat, stable
surface with multiple attachment points to accommodate packages of
various shapes and sizes. The platform is made of a vibration -
dampening material, which minimizes external interference and
provides a clean test environment for accurate results.
Additionally, the platform is designed to withstand the high forces
generated during testing, ensuring stable operation even at extreme
vibration levels.
User - Friendly Control System
Despite its advanced capabilities, the electrodynamic shaker table
features a user - friendly control system. The system is PC -
based, equipped with intuitive software. Operators can easily input
test parameters, start and stop the test, and monitor the progress
in real - time. The software provides clear visual displays of key
data such as vibration frequency, amplitude, and test time
remaining. It also has extensive data - logging and analysis
capabilities, enabling the collection and in - depth evaluation of
test data for comprehensive package performance assessment.

4. Applications in Package Testing
Consumer Goods Packaging
For consumer goods such as electronics, glassware, and food
products, our electrodynamic shaker table is used to test the
effectiveness of their packaging. By subjecting packages to random
vibrations, manufacturers can ensure that the products inside are
well - protected during transportation. This helps in reducing the
number of damaged products reaching the consumers, improving brand
reputation, and increasing customer loyalty.
Industrial Product Packaging
Industrial products, including machinery parts, chemicals, and
automotive components, often require robust packaging. The shaker
table is used to test the durability of these packages under random
vibration conditions. This ensures that the products can withstand
the harsh vibrations during transportation and storage, reducing
the risk of damage and costly production delays.
E - commerce Packaging
With the rapid growth of e - commerce, proper packaging is crucial
for ensuring that products arrive in good condition. Our
electrodynamic shaker table is used by e - commerce companies and
their packaging suppliers to test the packaging of products sold
online. This helps in optimizing packaging designs, reducing
shipping costs associated with damaged products, and enhancing the
overall customer experience.
