Contents and Key Points of ASTM D642-25 Standard Revision

The transport test can accommodate almost all test schedules specified in the ASTM D 4169 evaluation test method general rules.

One of the most widely referenced transportation packaging test standards in the United States for an extended period. It specifies ten types of hazard factors during transportation and structures the overall test to match real transport environments. The tests are classified into 18 Distribution Cycle (DC) categories based on the shape, weight, and mode of transportation of the packaged goods, from which selections are made to conduct tests according to the procedures. There are three levels of assurance (test severity), and the test conditions vary depending on the level, such as the strength (Grms) in vibration tests and drop height. ▼ For more details, please download the PDF document (recommended). ▼ For urgent inquiries, please contact us using the 'Contact Us' section below.

• Vibration Testing

We will conduct a series of packaging tests in accordance with the test sequences specified in ASTM D4169 and ASTM D7386.

This is one of the many transportation packaging test standards that have been referenced in the United States for an extended period. Our company conducts packaging tests tailored to customer requirements in accordance with the test sequences specified in ASTM D4169 / ASTM D7386. Additionally, ISO 11607 (JIS T8041), which is an international standard for sterilization packaging related to medical devices, recommends it as a performance test for packaging. ▼ For more details, please download the PDF document (recommended). ▼ Customers in a hurry, please contact us using the 'Contact Us' section below.

• Vibration Testing

DC13 is a simulation test for air and truck transportation of small packages weighing 68.1 kg or less.

ASTM D4169 is one of the most widely referenced transportation packaging test standards in the United States for a long time. It specifies tests based on 10 hazard factors during transportation, forming a comprehensive test that aligns with real transportation environments. Additionally, it is recommended as a performance test for packaging in the international standard for sterilization packaging in medical devices, ISO 11607 (JIS T8041). ▼ For more details, please download the PDF document (recommended). ▼ Customers in a hurry, please contact us via the 'Contact Us' section below.

• Impact Test

Attention to those in charge of planning ISTA tests/certification exams! Comprehensive support from selecting the testing method to conducting the ISTA test and the application procedures after the test.

Have you ever been troubled by requests from overseas customers asking, "Could you test according to ISTA standards?" or "Could you obtain ISTA certification?" When considering packaging specifications, it requires a lot of effort to read and understand the English standards documents from scratch, including the testing conditions and methods. Additionally, there are concerns about selecting the appropriate testing methods for your products, where to conduct the tests, and how to proceed with the ISTA certification process. By using our "ISTA Testing/ISTA Certification Testing Service," we provide a comprehensive service from selecting testing methods (developing testing plans) to conducting ISTA tests, handling the application process to ISTA in the U.S. after testing, and even reviewing packaging specifications in the event of a test failure. ▼ For more details, please download the PDF document (recommended). ▼ If you need urgent assistance, please contact us through the "Inquiry" section below.

• Other packaging machines

[Transport Test] We will conduct packaging cargo evaluation tests to increase our presence in Southeast Asia and China.

ISTA is one of the international standards widely adopted around the world for the evaluation testing of packaged goods, similar to ISO and ASTM. In recent years, its presence has particularly increased in Southeast Asia and China, with more companies adopting ISTA testing standards as their internal standards. Additionally, the international standard for sterilization packaging in medical devices, ISO11607 (JIS T8041), recommends ISTA testing as one of the options for evaluating packaging performance. Our testing lab was accredited by ISTA in December 2010 and conducts packaging tests tailored to customer needs in accordance with the testing sequences specified by ISTA. ▼ For more details, please download the PDF document (recommended). ▼ For urgent inquiries, please contact us using the 'Contact Us' link below.

The "Mechanical Stitching Method" by Nichinichisui Road Machinery Co., Ltd. is a new technique that allows for the repair of metal cracks without the application of heat. By using special bolts and reinforcement plates, cracks are physically removed, and repairs are made without causing any thermal impact on the base material. Repairs can be carried out even in environments where open flames cannot be used. Since no heat is applied, the disassembly of equipment is minimized. ◎ For more details, please contact us. ◎ If a detailed technical explanation is needed, please contact us.

● The production time for cast prototypes can be shortened! Since model making is not required, the production time for prototypes, which previously took about a month, can be significantly reduced. ● Model costs can be reduced! By directly producing sand molds from 3D data, there is no need for model production costs. If changes to the model are necessary, they can be addressed by modifying the 3D data. ● Similar products with different shapes and dimensions can be prototyped simultaneously! Different products, such as similar shapes or varying dimensions, can be molded at the same time in one molding process. This allows for the verification of multiple types in a short period.
