GFT-01 Flex Durability Tester

GFT-01 gelbo flex tester is also known as Flex Durability Tester, assesses how
well materials such as films, composites, and coating films endure repetitive
strain. It helps to create flex failure on samples so user can identify
pinholes and permeation ability change in the sample structure. The importance
of achieving strong flex crack resistance lies in reducing the risk of
packaging developing holes during distribution. This is crucial for keeping the
package intact throughout its journey, ensuring the contents inside remain
protected. The tester plays a key role in evaluating the ability of materials
to withstand repeated flexing, contributing to the overall durability and
reliability of packaging in various industries.
Advantages
GFT-01 Gelbo Flex Tester is equipped with PLC control and a user-friendly HMI
touch screen interface. It encompasses five standard test modes and
incorporates four test stations, allowing users to easily transition between
long and short stroke modes by the selectable test conditions A, B, C, D, and
E. Additionally, the inclusion of a micro printer ensures convenient and
efficient data output.
Application: 
GFT-01 Gelbo Flex Tester is normally used for high barrier materials in
various industries due to their protective properties. Here's a list of such
materials and their common usage in industries:
1. Metalized Films:
   - Industries: Food Packaging, Pharmaceuticals
   - Usage: Metalized films provide excellent barrier properties against
moisture and oxygen, making them suitable for preserving the freshness of food
items and pharmaceutical products.
2. Polyethylene Terephthalate (PET) Films:
   - Industries: Electronics, Medical Devices
   - Usage: PET films with high barrier coatings are used to protect
electronic components from moisture and chemicals. In the medical industry,
they are employed for sterile packaging.
