Drop Test Shisha Charcoal

 

What is the Drop Test in Shisha Charcoal?

The Drop Test is a common quality control method used to evaluate the durability and structural integrity of shisha charcoal briquettes, especially those made from coconut shells. In this test, a charcoal briquette is dropped from a specific height—typically around 80 to 100 centimeters—onto a hard surface to see whether it breaks, cracks, or stays intact.

This test is critical in the shisha industry because charcoal briquettes must maintain their shape during handling, packaging, transport, and most importantly, during use. If a briquette easily breaks on impact, it may indicate poor compression, excess moisture, or inadequate binder content.

A high-quality shisha charcoal will pass the drop test without chipping or crumbling. This proves that it was produced under optimal pressure, using a proper binder, and dried correctly.

Manufacturers often conduct the drop test before packaging to ensure the product can withstand the rigors of shipping, especially for exports to the Middle East, Europe, and other global markets.

Production Time Shisha Charcoal

Production Time for 18 Tons Shisha Charcoal Charcoal Newsroom — Producing 18 tons of shisha charcoal , enough to fill one 20-foot container, requires careful time management to meet export deadlines. The process starts with drying raw materials, such as coconut shells or sawdust, which typically takes 3 to 5 days to reach the ideal moisture level. Carbonization then follows, lasting about 1 to 2 days depending on kiln capacity. After carbonization, cooling and sorting require approximately half a day. The briquetting and pressing phase usually takes 1 to 2 days for large volumes. Newly formed briquettes need to be dried further, which can take between 2 and 5 days depending on weather conditions and drying methods. Finally, packaging and loading the briquettes for shipment typically takes 1 day. In total, producing 18 tons of shisha charcoal generally takes between 8.5 to 15.5 days. This timeline can vary based on factors such as kiln type, weather, raw material moisture, and the ...
