General testing standards and methods for textiles
By testing the performance of textiles, manufacturers can ensure that their textiles can meet the high expectations of the market, and that they have enough strength and flexibility to complete their design work. Common test types for textiles, fabrics, cloth and some fibers include resistance Resistance, compressive strength, tensile strength, puncture resistance and air permeability, thickness, coefficient of friction, etc. Many types of these tests can be performed on high-precision testing machines. The general testing standards for textiles include: ASTMD737 Standard Test Method for Air Permeability of Textile Fabrics. ASTMD1777-Standard Test Method for Thickness of Textile Materials. ISO9237-Determine the permeability of fabrics to air. ISO6452-coated fabric-determination of fogging characteristics or decorative materials inside the car. ASTMD1424-A drop pendulum (Elmendorf type) device is a standard test method for the tear strength of fabrics. ASTMD2256-Standard test method for measuring the tensile properties of yarns by the single-thread method. ASTMD5587- Trapezoid method to determine the standard test method of fabric tearing strength.
At the same time, as the recent research of GESTER shows, the benefits of improved productivity and firm performance can make implementing basic management practices worth it.

Cut resistance is one of the most critical performance indicators in personal protective equipment (PPE) testing, directly affecting worker safety in high-risk industries such as metal processing, machinery manufacturing, and emergency rescue. The TDM Cut Test Machine GT-KC28 plays a vital role in accurately evaluating the cut resistance of PPE products, including gloves, protective clothing, footwear materials, composite materials, rubber, and industrial textiles.
By adopting high-precision force control systems, intelligent data processing, and stable transmission technology, the GT-KC28 TDM Cut Tester can accurately measure the critical cutting force of materials and ensure excellent repeatability and comparability of test results. Its user-friendly touch-screen operation, comprehensive data storage, USB data export, and built-in thermal printer greatly improve laboratory efficiency and data traceability.
The TDM Cut Test Machine GT-KC28 fully complies with major international and national standards such as ISO 13997, EN 388, ASTM F2992/F2992M, ANSI/ISEA 105, and GB 24541-2022, making it a reliable solution for PPE manufacturers, third-party testing laboratories, and research institutions. Through precise and standardized cut resistance testing, the GT-KC28 helps reduce industrial cutting injuries, supports PPE certification across global markets, and ensures that protective equipment delivers reliable safety performance in real-world applications.
