A zero drop tester is a piece of equipment used in materials testing, particularly in the field of footwear and shoe design. It measures the cushioning and shock absorption properties of shoes.
In footwear design, the term "drop" refers to the height difference between the heel and the forefoot of a shoe. Traditional shoes often have a noticeable height difference, with the heel being higher than the forefoot. This design can influence the way a person's foot strikes the ground while walking or running.
A zero drop tester is designed to evaluate shoes that have no height difference between the heel and the forefoot, known as zero-drop shoes. These shoes are often favored by minimalist runners or those seeking a more natural foot strike. The tester typically measures the impact forces generated when a shoe is subjected to dropping or striking against a surface. This data helps manufacturers assess the effectiveness of the shoe's cushioning and shock absorption properties.
Overall, a zero drop tester plays a crucial role in ensuring that footwear meets the desired standards of comfort, performance, and safety for the end user.
The usage
During the products handling or transport process,there may be drop/fall,which results in damage within the products. And this device simulates the drop/fall situation of a finished product to evaluate the damage. This drop tester is mainly used to test angles,faces and corners of package.
