Drop testing is the core of transport packaging validation under ISTA series procedures, GB/T 4857.5 and ISO 2248. Choosing the right machine depends on package weight, size and the standard you must comply with.

  • Single-arm (zero-height) drop machine — for packages from 0.3 kg to 60+ kg; height 300-1500 mm; the most common choice for carton validation under GB/T 4857.5.
  • Double-arm drop machine — for heavier packages up to 100 kg with larger faces.
  • Rotating barrel drop tester — for small products such as mobile phones and chargers, simulating repeated accidental drops.
  • Box-type (drum) drop tester — for small to medium products requiring tumbling tests in a controlled chamber.

Key selection factors: maximum payload with margin, height adjustment resolution, flat and edge/corner attachment sets, and braking reliability to ensure the package hits exactly horizontally.

Dongyang Machinery offers the full range above, all calibrated to national metrology standards before shipment.
