Drum Compression Tester

The Pakmo’s Drum Compression Tester (DCT) is a precision-engineered testing instrument designed to assess the compressive strength of plastic drums under vertical load. Built to deliver consistent and accurate results, the DCT determines the maximum load a drum can withstand before deformation or collapse, ensuring product durability and compliance

Drum Compression Tester

Importance Of Drum Compression Tester

Test with Confidence. Deliver with Strength.

The Pakmo’s Drum Compression Tester is a specialized testing instrument designed to evaluate the strength and durability of plastic drums. It measures the maximum compressive force a drum can endure when vertical pressure is applied — right up to the point of deformation or collapse.

✅ Complies with ASTM D642 & ASTM D4169
✅ Microcontroller-Based for Precision and Repeatability

Why Drum Compression Tester Matters

🍽️ Food Storage
Maintain hygiene and prevent spillage during stacking.

🧴 Chemical & Industrial Use
Safely store and transport liquids and hazardous materials.

🌾 Agriculture
Transport grains, bulk materials, fertilizers, and feed.

🚛 Logistics & Shipping
Ensure stability and safety during warehousing and transit.

🏭 Manufacturing & Bulk Packaging
Preserve product integrity under stacked storage conditions.

💡 Note: Most plastic drums are made from HDPE, a durable thermoplastic. However, they can still fail under pressure when stacked improperly — leading to leakage, product loss, and safety hazards. Compression testing ensures consistent quality and structural integrity.

Key Features & Benefits

🔢 Microprocessor-Based Display
Accurate digital readings with real-time feedback.

🧪 Uniform Compression Force
Applies even pressure for consistent and reliable test results.

⚖️ TARE & Peak Hold Functions
Zero out load and capture maximum force with ease.

🛡️ Over-Travel Safety Protection
Prevents machine damage and ensures operator safety.

💪 Heavy-Duty Base Plate
Robust construction provides long-term performance and stability.

💡 Backlit LCD Display
Clear visibility in all lighting conditions.

📏 Customizable Load & Platform Sizes
Adaptable for testing different drum sizes and configurations.

Advantages of Compression Testing

✔️ Verifies product strength for stacking and storage
✔️ Reduces material waste and prevents costly failures
✔️ Supports compliance with industry standards
✔️ Builds trust and enhances brand reputation
✔️ Promotes safe and cost-efficient manufacturing
