USA. Recently, the TMI Group announced the acquisition of the BQM-1, a new measuring device invented by Australia's XQ Innovations. "The company has successfully produced the BQM device in many international research groups and especially for corrugated box manufacturers with very novel results," said Dave Muchorski, vice president of marketing at TMI Group.
The BQM measuring device offers instantaneous information, pertinent to the hardness of a box that is directly related to the structural integrity of the corrugated medium. Its inventor, Russell Allen states that "so far, the industry has accepted an inherent degree of loss of performance in specifications, of more than 30 percent.
The potential for reductions in material use and energy will help companies both commercially and environmentally."
