The ASTM D4169-16 applies to shipping containers

and systems. This standard is composed of three

level types and each one follows a definite duration to

complete the test sequence. According to the

distribution cycle and to the packaging system the

test sequence can be repeated on several sides.

The real truck PSD has been raised in order to be at the same

level as the ASTM D4169-16 PSD. The raising coefficient has

been determined by calculatingπΊπ‘…π‘€π‘†π‘œπ‘£π‘’π‘Ÿπ‘Žπ‘™π‘™ 𝐴𝑆𝑇𝑀 𝐷4169βˆ’16

Introduction

Everyone knows that the aim of a packaging is to protect the product it contains. However during the packaging’s life cycle many constraints can occur, especially

during handling and transport. That is why each packaging has to be tested before any launching. Standards have been developed in order to simulate transport in

laboratory and one of these standards has recently changed. Indeed the ASTM International (American Society for Testing and Materials International) D4169

standard, which simulates the vibrations during transport by truck over the packaging, among other things, has evolved so as to be closer to an actual transport by

truck. In terms of acceleration probability density, an actual transport by truck is not a Gaussian[1], in fact it approximates a modified Gaussian[2]. The present work

shows in which way the current standard represents an actual transport by analysing its PSD, its acceleration probability density and by comparing them to those of

the former standard and of an actual transport by truck. Moreover in each case the severity factors will be calculated based on the method of S. OTARI[2].

As we observed at the beginning of this study, the ASTM D4169-16 PSD is more likely to approximate an actual transport by truck than the ASTM D4169-14 one. This

statement is confirmed by the study of the probability densities: an actual transport by truck is characterized by a modified Gaussian and the current standard is closer

to a modified Gaussian than the former one, which is composed of Gaussians. In conclusion the ASTM D4169-16 is more likely to represent the constraints

encountered during transport. However the severity factor of the ASTM D4169-16 is equal to 0.91 while the actual transport’s one is equal to 0.41. Therefore a small

improvement can be brought to the current standard so as to get closer to an actual transport severity factor. For example the levels durations can be adjusted in order

to fit to one particular transport type.

The ASTM D4169-14 level II has been

chosen for the comparison because

its coefficient of determination is

higher than those of levels I or III.

The ASTM D4169-16’s profile is less severe than a Gaussian’s.

For the experiment, the three levels

have been applied separately to the

system (composed of the recorder

stuck to the vibration table). Each

The ASTM D4169-14 applies to shipping containers

and systems. Three levels are available to test the

system: level I, level II or level III. Only one level is

applied to the system during the test sequence. The

test duration and the sides tested depend on the

distribution cycle.

the truck.
