Impact Indicator 2 5G | ShockWatch Patent Authorized 5G Shock Indicator, Field Armable

Impact Indicator 2 5G, as a legally authorized product, aligning with ShockWatch patents, offers proven technology and reliability for ensuring your cargo’s integrity. Unlike many standard shock indicators on the market, the Impact Indicator 2 features a tamperproof design and is field-armable, meaning it is activated only when applied, which helps eliminate accidental activations during shipment.

Each Impact Indicator 2 5G is a single-use, go/no-go device that visually alerts you to potential mishandling by changing from clear to bright red upon impact. This immediate visual cue signals the need for inspection before acceptance. Furthermore, each Impact Indicator 2 is numerically serialized, providing a unique identifier for enhanced traceability and accountability throughout the supply chain. Its robust design with an acrylic adhesive ensures it stays securely attached to packages.

Key Features Stand Out to Others

  • Optimized Packaging for Distribution
    Impact Indicator 2 5G is thoughtfully packaged in smaller quantities (20 pieces per pack), making it more convenient and beneficial for distributors in managing inventory and sales.
  • Eco-Friendly Integrated Label Design
    This product uniquely combines the companion label, framing label (also known as ring label), and alert sticker elements into a cohesive, streamlined design. This thoughtful integration aims to be more environmentally friendly by reducing excess material and offers users the flexibility to utilize only the framing label or the full companion label as needed, reducing waste.
  • Enhanced Multi-Impact Detection
    Unlike typical single-event indicators, Impact Indicator 2 5G is engineered with the capability to provide an indication of a second significant impact event. This offers a more comprehensive history of handling for critical shipments, allowing for more detailed post-transit analysis.

 

What Impact Indicator 2 5G(ShockWatch Patent Technology) Can Help With?

Implementing the Impact Indicator 2 series offers an economical solution that significantly helps to reduce damage-related costs. By acting as a highly visible damage indicator, these indicators serve as a visual deterrent to improper handling.

Key ways Impact Indicator 2 helps users:

  • Promotes Accountability: It provides indisputable evidence of mishandling, fostering a clear chain of accountability for all product handling. This encourages freight carriers and handlers to improve their handling practices.
  • Identifies Trouble Spots: By revealing where and when impacts occur, the indicators help identify trouble spots within the entire delivery journey and supply chain, from production to transportation and storage.
  • Reduces Warranty Claims & Disputes: It can reveal possible concealed damage and helps reduce warranty claims, minimizing disputes between shippers and carriers. This ultimately enhances trust in the supply chain.
  • Enhances Product Quality: Ensuring products are handled with care from dock to dock helps increase the overall quality of goods delivered, maintaining product integrity.
  • Simplifies Inspection: Upon arrival, if an Impact Indicator 2 is red, it immediately alerts the recipient to inspect contents before acceptance, streamlining the inbound goods inspection process and saving valuable time.
  • Verifies Packaging Effectiveness: The use of these indicators can confirm the effectiveness of your current packaging solutions, allowing for optimization and further cost savings.

Ultimately, this comprehensive approach, saves time and money by preventing damage, rather than reacting to it after the fact.

 

How to Select Impact Indicator 2 Series Damage Indicator

Products

Choosing the most suitable Impact Indicator 2 for your specific needs is a crucial step in preventing damage. To select the ideal Impact Indicator 2 sensitivity, consider these factors:

  • Shipment Size and Weight: a light package in a small volume might require a higher G-level indicator, while a heavy, large item might need a lower G-level.
  • Product Fragility: More fragile products typically necessitate a more sensitive indicator (lower G-level), as they can withstand less force without damage.
  • Packaging Effectiveness: Conversely, products with robust packaging might allow for a less sensitive indicator (higher G-level). The packaging effectively changes the characteristics of shock by increasing its duration and lowering peak acceleration, preventing damage to contents.
  • Understanding G-Levels: Each indicator will turn red when an impact occurs that exceeds this preset G-level threshold. A larger G-number means a greater shock force is required for activation.

Remember, the selection guide is a starting point, and for optimal results, considering your product’s specific fragility and packaging is essential.
