โœฆ Synopsis


A simpl#ied analysis is presented of the physical phenomena and mechanical stresses involved in shock and vibration hazards which lead to concealed damages. The role of industrial packaging design in red&q the destructive mechanical stresses to harmless levels is discussed. Consideration is also given to the factors which contribute to an optimal package design based on a compromise between the cost of occasional concealed damage and the cost qfe.rtra protection achieved tq the liberal use of expensive packaging designs.

iNTl?ODUCTlON i..

Although package design is usually the province of the product engineer or the packaging consultant, industrial marketing practitioners have more than a passing interest in the subject because (a) the cost of packaging, transportation, insurance and storage are important factors in price determination;

(b) too many shipments arriving with concealed damage cause customer inconvenience and d:ssatisfaction; and (c) improperly designed containers for hazardous products can cause grievous injury to innocent parties.
