ISTA 1D Non-Simulation

[Transport Test] We will conduct a series of packaging tests in accordance with the test sequence specified in ISTA 1D.

Overview of the ISTA 1D Test: - It applies to individually packaged products weighing over 150 lb (68 kg). (Extended test of ISTA 1B) - The ISTA 1D test is not a simulation of the transportation environment. The test items consist of compression tests, vibration tests, and impact tests (drop or tilt or horizontal). - In the compression test, the compression load value is determined using the load calculation formula according to ISTA standards. There are two methods for compression: "Apply and Release (AR)" and "Apply and Hold (AH)." - In the vibration test, either random vibration or fixed displacement vibration can be selected. - In the impact test, for cargo that can be dropped from the top, it is always dropped from a height of 150 mm regardless of the weight of the cargo. For cargo where top dropping is not realistic, inclined impact or horizontal impact is conducted, followed by edge drop. In the inclined and horizontal impact tests, an impact of 1.7 m per second is applied to the cargo from four directions. - After conducting the compression test, vibration test, and impact test consecutively, the box is opened to check for damage. (In the case of ISTA certified tests, the box cannot be opened for inspection during the test.)
