Description:
Carrying handles of packagings have a great importance in the comfortable and safe handling of packed products. Producers and consumers have to face occasionally damaged carrying handles that considerably increase the possibility of the damage of the product. These carrying handles are of a wide variety, depending on the package size, packaging material, weight, etc. The main reason for frequent product damages is due to the fact that producers lack the sufficient knowledge of stresses. In this paper we analyze the stresses and propose a measurement process for packaging with a carrying handle. We measure the stresses via a range of standard equipment (cameras, accelerometers, shaker table). In addition, we provide a general framework and the description of a test environment for the accurate reproduction of the logistic stresses appearing in packaging with a carrying handle.
