Product Overview

The PT089 Sheet Turning Stress Tester is a dedicated benchtop instrument engineered to measure the folding resistance, rotational stress, and tensile force experienced by passport pages during real-world handling. It supports both single-sheet evaluation and full-passport durability testing, making it an essential tool for ePassport manufacturers, personalization bureaus, and document test laboratories.

A color touchscreen interface gives operators full control over test parameters such as cycle count, frequency, stroke length, and turning angle. By adjusting these values, users can run standard compliance tests or perform extended qualification routines beyond the baseline requirements. The system can test up to five electronic passports simultaneously within the same test run, significantly improving throughput in high-volume QC environments.

520 x 55 x 430 mm benchtop footprint, 35 kg net weight, and universal AC 100 - 230 V power make the PT089 easy to deploy in standard passport test labs.

Key Features & Benefits
1. Passport Page Folding Resistance Test

Accurately reproduces folding and turning loads on passport pages to identify weak points in paper, laminate, and binding construction.

2. Five-Passport Parallel Testing

Test up to five ePassports at the same time within a single run, maximizing lab throughput and reducing per-sample test time.

3. Color Touchscreen Parameter Control

Easily set cycle count, frequency, stroke length, and turning angle on the intuitive color touch display.

4. Single-Sheet & Full-Passport Modes

Supports individual page evaluation and complete passport durability assessment for flexible lab workflows.

Standards Compliance

The PT089 supports mechanical durability testing referenced in leading ePassport and travel-document standards:

  • ISO/IEC 18745 (2018): Clause 8.8 - sheet turning and page folding resistance requirements for machine-readable passports, ensuring documents withstand repeated page manipulation.
  • ICAO V3.2 (2006): Section 5.8 - durability and mechanical test methods for electronic passports, covering page turning, folding, and torsion scenarios.
Recommended Applications
ePassport Page Durability Labs

Perform standardized folding, turning, and torsion tests to validate passport page construction, binding strength, and chip-module reliability.

Passport Personalization QC

Verify that personalized passports retain structural integrity after lamination, printing, and chip implantation processes.

Document Certification & Tenders

Generate reproducible test data for compliance reports, third-party certification, and tender qualification submissions.

R&D and Material Development

Adjust cycles, frequency, length, and angle to evaluate new substrates, adhesives, cover materials, and binding techniques beyond standard limits.
