Abrasion and Pilling are the most common fabric problems faced by end users. They are caused by pill or beads forming and degrading. These problems are mostly seen in used garments. Before manufacturing garments, fabrics are tested for their change in appearance and performance. This helps the manufacturer meet the required resistance for garments.

The YG(B) 401T Martindale Abrasion Tester measures fabric wear and tear and appearance change. Separate methods and different machine settings are used for pilling and abrasion. Fabric is evaluated by change of appearance and difference in weight.

Key Features

Multiple working Stations: This pilling tester can test up to 09 fabric samples at one time, which saves time.

Multi-direction Movement: The Lissajous movement of the device makes it more effective and real than testers with linear movement.

Adjustable Speed Movement: The speed of the abrasion tester can be adjusted between 20 to 70 RPM.

Abundant Counting Range: Users can extend their counting range up to 999999 movements.

2 Grinding Blocks: For pilling and abrasion testing, 198g and 155g friction heads are used.

Global Compliance: This pilling and abrasion machine can be used worldwide as it complies with ISO, GB, FZ, TM, M&S and JIS industrial standards.

User-Friendly Interface: The 7-inch touch-screen has multiple languages, which makes it easier to input commands for performing tests.
