The Chalmers DST measures the structural quality of combined board produced at the corrugator and mea- sures the damage (crush) that occurs during the convert- ing process. This quality can be compared to what should be obtained on undamaged board and a Performance In- dicator calculated. The DST is reportedly more sensitive than caliper, ECT, and BCT and provides feedback in twelve seconds so real- time on machine adjustments can be implemented. Based on the calculated Performance Indicator, the DST can pro- vide a good idea of what the likely stacking performance will be and also the effects of cyclical humidity creep. It is also one of the only tests that provide an accurate indica- tion of how a box will perform in a real-world environment. Visit www.korutest.com for more information.
