Sample Cutter for Edge Crush Test

Sample Cutter for Edge Crush Test

Model: AME-1009

The AME Technology Sample Cutter for Edge Crush Test AME-1009 is a robust, precision-engineered manual sample preparation instrument developed specifically for accurate and repeatable cutting of corrugated fibreboard specimens used in edge crush testing. Designed to meet the requirements of laboratory testing, quality control departments, and production-floor inspections, this cutter ensures clean, straight, and perfectly parallel sample edges, which are critical for obtaining reliable and consistent ECT results.

The instrument features a hand-driven twin-knife cutting mechanism guided by precision linear rails, enabling smooth and controlled cutting action without damaging the material structure. The emery-lined base surface prevents sample movement during operation, further enhancing cutting accuracy and repeatability. Its rugged, portable construction eliminates the need for pneumatic or electrical power, making the AME-1009 suitable for use in diverse testing environments. By minimizing sample preparation errors, the AME-1009 supports standardized testing procedures, improved result accuracy, and dependable quality assurance in corrugated board testing applications.

  • Description
  • Technical Specifications

The AME Technology Sample Cutter for Edge Crush Test AME-1009 is designed to provide precise and repeatable preparation of corrugated board specimens used for edge crush strength evaluation. The instrument utilizes a hand-driven twin-knife cutting head that simultaneously cuts the top and bottom edges of the sample in perfectly parallel straight lines.

The specimen is placed on an emery-lined anti-slip surface to prevent movement during cutting. Linear guide mechanisms ensure smooth and straight cutting motion, resulting in uniform specimen geometry critical for eliminating errors during ECT measurement.

The cutter head is portable, mechanically robust, and requires no external air or electrical connection, making it suitable for laboratory use as well as on-site quality control in production environments.
