Wool Fold Shrinkage Tester
Category：Textile Functional Tester
Introduction
The wool fold shrinkage tester is a precision instrument to determine the length of the towel under the standard tension.
The instrument adopts the principle of constant load for tensile test of the sample. The instrument adopts constant velocity elongation (CRE) detection mechanism, microcomputer control, large screen LCD display, automatic data processing, and printable output, convenient setup program, accurate and quick test.
Application
Besides wool, the testing instrument is also suitable for various fabrics such as cotton, linen, and silk, and is widely used in textile testing laboratories and manufacturing companies.
Standard
FZ/T70008-2012: Test method for knitting density coefficient of woolen knitted fabrics.
