Any area on the surface of a toy that is accessible to a child and non-accessible to flat surface contact during drop test or tip over test must be subjected to compression test, and our compression tester is a kind of toy testing equipment especially developed for this test.
Our compression disk is used to simulate the subjecting of a toy to mechanical damage through compressing or other actions likely to be performed by a child, and it is of reliable quality to deliver stable performance.
