T 630
Martindale
–
Abrasion-
and
Pilling
Tester
|
|
Test machine for
simulating the
end- use
performance and
pilling
propensity of
fabrics of all
kinds. |
 |
|
Various models
are available:
-
T 630/1
(Fig.) with
6 abrasion
heads and a
pneumatic
lift- off
mechanism
operating
after a
preset
number of
cycles.
-
T 630/2
with 6
abrasion
heads but
without
pneumatic
lift- off
mechanism.
-
T 630/3
with 4
abrasion
heads and
pneumatic
lift- off
mechanism
operating
after a
preset
number of
cycles.
-
T 630/4
with 4
abrasion
heads but
without
pneumatic
lift- off
mechanism.
The outstanding
feature of this
machine
Is the
facility to
pre-select
any desired
number of
abrasion
cycles for
each
abrasion
head. Once
this number
is reached
the abrasion
head is
pneumatically
lifted off.
It is thus
possible in
a series of
tests to
check very
quickly the
state of the
specimens in
relation to
the number
of abrasion
cycles.

- Accessories
supplied with
the machine:
2 sets of
weights of
400 gr and
200 gr. Used
in
conjunction
with the
basic test
head
(specimen

In the
Pilling Test
a specimen area
of 65 cm2
is
exposed to the
action of the
machine.
The accessories
required for
this are shown
on the right in
the above table.

Accessories
required for
simulating the
wear
characteristics
and pilling
propensity of
fabrics of all
kinds and
supplied with
the machine:
abradents,
