Green Bay Packaging Invests In Eighth Chalmers DST With the startup of Green Bay Packaging’s new paper ma- chine just weeks away, the Kalamazoo, Michigan, division purchased a Chalmers DST to enhance its testing lab and compliment its design capabilities. This will make eight Chalmers DST for the group as they make light-weighting and right-weighting a priority. The Chalmers DST measures the structural quality of combined board produced at the corrugator and measures the damage (crush) that occurs during the converting pro- cess. This quality can be compared to what should be ob- tained on undamaged board and a Performance Indicator calculated. The DST provides feedback in twelve seconds so real time on machine adjustments can be implemented. Based on the calculated Performance Indicator, the DST can give a good idea of what the likely stacking per- formance will be and also the effects of cyclical humidity creep. It provides an accurate indication of how a box will perform in a real world environment. Visit www.korutest.com for more information.
