METHOD FOR MEASURING THE FOLDING BEHAVIOR OR FOLDING RESISTANCE OF BLANKS

摘要

The aim of the invention is to provide a method and a device with which the folding behavior or the folding resistance of blanks (10) can be examined. To this end, a holding device (33) for exactly holding the blank (10) in an upright level can be pivoted about a horizontal axis of rotation, a portion of the blank (10), namely folding tabs, resting on measuring sensors (35, 36) and receiving reactive forces in the zone of the folding flaps.
