KR‑431 Concora Medium Fluter for CMT & CCT Corrugating Medium Test
RT-431 CMT CCT Corrugated Paper Concora Medium Fluter
The Laboratory Concora Medium Fluter (also known as corrugated base paper corrugator) is the basic testing equipment for corrugated base paper in the laboratory after corrugating (called corrugated paper) to perform corrugated flat pressure (CMT) and corrugated paper compression strength (CCT) tests. It needs to be used with ring pressure sampler and ring pressure strength tester.

Product Overview
The KR‑431 laboratory‑grade Concora medium fluter is specialised sample‑preparation equipment for corrugating medium paper. Under controlled temperature and pressure conditions, it forms standard A‑type corrugated test strips from flat medium paper. These pre‑fluted specimens are essential precursors to run CMT (Concora Medium Flat Crush Test) and CCT (Corrugated Crush Test) when paired with ring‑pressure sample cutters and compression strength testers.
This instrument strictly complies with GB/T 1061 and ISO 7263 international testing standards. It simulates industrial corrugator thermal‑forming conditions inside laboratory environment, delivering repeatable, standardised fluted samples. It is widely deployed in corrugated‑board mills, paper‑making enterprises, packaging R&D centres and accredited third‑party packaging‑material‑testing laboratories.
Core Product Competitive Advantages
- PID Intelligent Precision Temperature‑Control System Adopts advanced PID closed‑loop temperature‑regulating algorithm with automatic temperature‑compensation logic. Real‑time display for both set‑point and actual working temperature. Built‑in over‑temperature cut‑off protection prevents thermal‑runaway risk. Parameter memory retains configured values after power‑off, eliminating repeated manual setup. System also supports self‑tuning for fast thermal stabilisation.
- High‑Precision Machined Corrugating Gear Assembly Precision‑processed copper‑alloy forming‑gears feature accurate tooth‑profile dimensions: upper‑tooth radius 1.50 ± 0.1 mm, lower‑tooth radius 2.00 ± 0.1 mm and tooth‑depth 4.75 ± 0.05 mm. Excellent thermal‑conductivity and wear‑resistance guarantees consistent corrugation quality across long‑term continuous‑run sample‑preparation work.
- Stable Mechanical‑Drive & Adjustable Contact‑Pressure Fixed 4.5 r/min working rotational‑speed ensures uniform forming speed for each paper strip. Contact‑pressure can be adjusted within 49‑108 N to match different paper‑base grammages. Simple physical Test / Stop push‑buttons provide straightforward operation for lab‑technicians.
- Optimised Cabinet‑Style Bench‑Top Layout Integrated metal cabinet houses heating module, drive‑motor and control electronics. Equipped with levelling foot‑pads for stable table‑top installation. Intuitive front‑panel layout separates temperature‑controller and operating‑buttons for easy daily operation and visual monitoring.
- Standard‑Aligned Sample‑Preparation Workflow Follows ISO and domestic‑standard specimen‑making requirements. Operators can produce qualified CMT / CCT test‑pieces quickly. It works seamlessly with ring‑pressure cutters and universal compression testers to complete the full corrugating‑medium performance‑evaluation workflow.

Standard Complete Specimen‑Preparation Operating Workflow
- Pre‑Test Warm‑Up Place instrument on level lab bench. Power‑on unit. Set target working temperature to standard 175 ℃, wait for heating‑system to reach thermal equilibrium. Confirm contact‑pressure setting matches paper‑specimen grade.
- Specimen Pre‑Cutting Cut raw corrugating‑medium paper into standard strip dimensions: 150‑160 mm × 12.7 ± 0.1 mm using ring‑pressure sample cutter.
- Feeding & Corrugating‑Forming Insert prepared flat‑paper strip into instrument feeding‑slot. Press Test button. Internal geared‑segments pull paper through heated forming‑station to create standard A‑wave corrugated profile.
- Retrieve Finished Fluted Sample Carefully take completed corrugated specimen from output compartment. Avoid direct hand‑contact with flute‑surface to prevent moisture transfer which may affect subsequent compression‑test results.
- Post‑Test Shutdown After finishing batch‑sample production, press Stop button. Allow heating‑components to cool gradually before power‑off. Keep gear‑forming station free of paper dust and fibre debris. The finished fluted sample can be transferred to corresponding fixtures to run CMT flat‑crush or CCT edge‑crush test on compression‑tester equipment.
