The Hanatek Crease and Board Stiffness Tester
1. Identifying parts on the crease and board stiffness
tester
The crease and board stiffness tester measures the force
required to hold a creased sample folded to 90oor a board
sample bent through 15o, the results being taken after these
conditions have been maintained for 15 seconds (s). The
samples are bent against the load cell blade (F) and the force on
this blade is displayed on the LCD display (C).
Operating the instrument is through rotating the relevant test jaw
(J + I) and using the capacitive touch buttons (D)

The display automatically displays the force reading at the end of
the 15s test period. Both results from crease testing and board
stiffness testing are stored in separate columns with batch testing
stats and the crease to board stiffness ratio also displayed.
To operate, the instrument needs connection to a 110-240V AC
supply via the AC-DC 24V power adapter. The power DC power
input socket and ON switch is located at the rear of the instrument
(G).
At switch-on, the display (C) will display the instrument serial
number, last certified date and the firmware version loaded into
the three PCBs inside the CBT instrument. This information may
be requested by Hanatek or approved repair centres if you
require technical assistance at any stage.
It is recommended with any measuring equipment that it is left for
thirty minutes to warm up before commencing testing. The
recommended operating conditions as stated in the standard
BS6965 is 23deg C at 50% r.h.
