ASTM-D999
ASTM-D999 LSO Standard Test Methods for Vibration Testing of Shipping Containers Shipping containers are exposed to complex dynamic stresses when subjected to vibration present in all transportation vehicles. Approximating the actual damage, or lack of damage, experienced in shipping may require subjecting the container(s) and contents to vibration inputs. ASTM-D999 is the standard test method […]
ASTM-D642
ASTM-D642 LSO Standard Test Method for Determining Compressive Resistance of Shipping Containers, Components, and Unit Loads ASTM-D642 is the standard test method for determining compressive resistance of shipping containers, components, and unit loads. Compressive resistance is one of the properties used to evaluate the ability of shipping containers, components, and unit loads to successfully survive […]
ASTM-D5276
ASTM-D5276 LSO Standard Test Method for Drop Test of Loaded Containers by Free Fall The ASTM-D5276 standard test method for drop test of loaded containers evaluates the capability of a container to withstand the sudden shock resulting from a free fall, or the capability of a container and its inner packing to protect its contents […]
ASTM-D5265
ASTM-D5265 LSO Standard Test Method for Bridge Impact Testing Materials shipped in elongated packages are liable to damage as a result of impact near their midpoint when only the ends are supported. This type of damage can occur during the shipment of packaging of mixed dimensions. It is particularly prevalent during conveyor line transport and […]
ASTM-D4728
ASTM-D4728 LSO Standard Test Method for Random Vibration Testing of Shipping Containers Shipping containers are exposed to complex dynamic stresses in the distribution environment. Approximating the actual damage, or lack of damage, experienced in real life may require subjecting the container and its contents to random vibration tests. In this way, ASTM-D4728 standard test method […]
ASTM-D4332
ASTM-D4332 LSO ASTM D4332 Environmental Conditioning for Medical Device Packaging ASTM D4332 is the industry-standard method for conditioning shipping units, packages, and medical devices prior to transit simulation and environmental testing. It exposes packaging systems to controlled temperature and humidity conditions, simulating the extreme climates they may encounter during distribution. Conditioning is required for most […]
ASTM-D4169
ASTM-D4169 LSO ASTM D4169 Distribution Testing for Medical Device Packaging ASTM D4169 is the industry-standard method for simulating the distribution environment that medical device packaging encounters during shipping and handling. It uses controlled sequences of drops, compression, vibration, and other stresses to evaluate whether a sterile barrier system can survive real-world hazards. LSO performs ASTM […]
ASTM-D3078
ASTM-D3078 LSO Standard Test Method for Determination of Leaks in Flexible Packaging by Bubble Emission The ASTM-D3078 is the standard test method for determination of gross leaks in flexible packaging containing a headspace gas by bubble emission. The test is conducted by submerging the test specimen in the immersion fluid within the confines of a […]
ASTM D Standards
ASTM D Standards LSO ASTM International (ASTM), originally known as the American Society for Testing and Materials, is an international standards organization that develops and publishes voluntary consensus technical standards for a wide range of materials, products, systems, and services. ASTM has a dominant role among standards developers in the USA, and is considered to […]
Medical Package Testing Standards
Medical Package Testing Standards LSO Standards Expertise Both the FDA and international regulatory bodies emphasize on compliance with ISO 11607; Packaging for Terminally Sterilized Medical Devices. This standard defines the test requirements necessary to ensure that the terminally sterilized package/device will maintain its design performance over the intended life of the product and will not […]
