DSTMD Torsional Stiffness Tester
The Chalmers DST uniquely measures the MD Torsional Stiffness of corrugated board, to quantify how well the board has been made, how much damage occurred during converting, and how well the board protects it’s contents.

Boxes fail in service for many reasons and this may result in damaged contents and very unhappy customers. Invisible damage to the structure of the corrugated board making up the box can have a devastating effect on box stacking strength and general performance. The Chalmers DST can find this damage and help prevent its occurence.

The Chalmers DST (Dynamic Stiffness Tester) presents corrugated board manufacturers and users with a very powerful, innovative new tool to measure the potential performance of their corrugated board.
