Clamping Force Testing Method Of Large Products
1. Before placing the packaged product between platens,
verify that the clamp force using the clamp indicator. The
indicator should be placed between the axes of the platen
articulation points approximately 1/2 way up the platens.
2. Each time the product is clamped, the force should be
applied for a minimum of 15 seconds and not to exceed 1 minute.
3. Apply the clamp force on the sample with the platens
resting on the floor and the front edge of the platens flush with
the front of the package (see flush platen photo 4). If the package
is too large for the clamps to be flush to front edge (i.e., large
refrigerator, tractor etc.), clamp as close to the edge as
possible.
4. Clamp the product a total of 10 times in the flush
orientation.
5. Apply the clamp force on the packaged product with the
platens in a 6×6 inch(15.2x15.2cm) offset position(see fig 5 ).
Both the horizontal and vertical offset dimensions are measured at
the front bottom corner of the platen. If the package is too large
for the clamp to be positioned 6-inches from the front edge (i.e.,
large refrigerator, tractor etc.), clamp as close to this position
as possible.
1) Exception number 1: for large products with
an obvious, visible external skid(see fig 6), offset clamp testing
is not conducted if the product does not extend beyond any part of
the skid and there is some form of handling graphic or note that
indicates to clamp only from the skid. If there is no graphic or
not indicating this or there is some overhang beyond the skid, then
the entire clamp test protocol is conducted.
2) Exception number 2: If the product height,
when placed in its normal shipping orientation, is ≤ 12 inches, the
6 x6 inch offset testing is not conducted.
6. Clamp the product a total of 10 times with the clamp in
the 6 x6 inch offset position.
7. Repeat step 5.2.5 except with a 2 x6 inch offset clamp
position. The 2 x6 inch offset is similar to the 6 x6 inch offset
except the platens are oriented such that they are 2-inches from
the floor and 6-inches back from the package’s front edge. If the
package is too large for the clamps to be positioned 2-inches from
the front edge (i.e., large refrigerator, tractor etc.), clamp as
close to this position as possible.
8. Repeat flush and offset clamping on all other sides of the
product that are indicated in the handling graphics as acceptable
for clamp handling.
According to verdict standards, if there is one item failed the
test, then put forward the “Test Failure Handling Sheet

Clamping Force Testing Method Of Small Products
Before clamp testing, verify that the clamp for using the clamp
force indicator. The indicator should be placed between the axes of
the platen articulation points approximately 1/2 way up the
platens.
During clamp compression testing of small products, 4 samples
will be utilized as outlined below.
1. If, when oriented for clamp testing (based on the
handling graphics) the sides perpendicular to the platens of a
single sample ≤ 24” (61cm), then the 4 sample should be placed in
a”side by side”oritentation as shown to the fig 1(with 2 samples on
the bottom and 2 on the top)
2. If, when oriented for clamp testing the sides
perpendicular to the platens of a single sample are >24”
(61cm),, then the 4 samples should be placed in a top-bottom
orientation as shown fig 2. If, when placed 4-high, any of the
samples are completely above the top of the platens, that sample
can be removed from clamping in this orientation only(fig 3 shows 3
MHC’s ready for clamp testing with the 4th sample removed from
testing in this orientation)
3 Each time the samples are clamped, the force should be
applied for a minimum of 15 seconds and not to exceed 1 minute.
4 .Apply the clamp force on the samples with the platens
resting on the floor and the samples flush with the front edge of
the platens (see fig2). If the samples are too large for the clamps
to be flush to front edge, clamp as close to the edge as possible.
5.Clamp the product a total of 10times with the clamps in the
flush orientation.
6. Apply the clamp force on the packaged product with the
platens in a 2×2 inch offset position(see fig 3). Both the
horizontal and vertical offset dimensions are measured at the front
bottom corner of the platen. If the package is too large for the
clamps to be positioned 2-inches from the front edge, clamp as
close to this position as possible.
7. Clamp the product a total of 10 times with the clamps in
the offset position.
8. Repeat the flush and 2x2 inch offset camping on all other
sides of the product that are identified in the handling graphics
as acceptable for clamp handling. Please note, depending on the box
geometry, you may use both the side-by-side and top-bottom
orientation during clamp testing.
