Some Suggestions on the Development of Textile Instruments Made in China

1. Pay attention to applied basic research   In recent years, there have been great developments in textile materials, textile technology, and textile machinery. New indicators and test items are emerging one after another, which provides a lot of space for the development of textile testing instruments. Such as: high-speed single yarn strength tester, photoelectric evenness tester, photoelectric fabric inspection machine, foreign fiber removal technology, etc. It is strongly recommended that textile colleges, scientific research units and qualified textile instrument manufacturers pay attention to directional testing theory research, develop instruments with independent intellectual property rights in a certain testing field, improve the quality of characteristic products, and strive to reach a higher international level , Improve the level of domestic textile instruments. Even if it is to digest and absorb advanced technology, we should also pay attention to thorough research in theory, so as to improve and innovate on its basis. Vigorously developing textile instruments with independent intellectual property rights requires strong support from all aspects including government departments.   Take a large number of large-capacity cotton testing systems in the current national cotton circulation system reform as an example. A large-capacity cotton testing system has been successfully developed several years ago, and it has been further improved on this basis, and has been supported by the national fiber inspection department. We hope that the domestically produced large-capacity cotton testing system will be popularized in the domestic cotton circulation field as soon as possible. In addition, the research on the instrument should not be limited to the instrument itself. The research on the application of the instrument should be included in the entire research and promotion process. The well-known Uster Statistical Bulletin has set a good example for our instrument manufacturing industry. 2. Strengthen the formulation and revision of metrological verification procedures and calibration specifications. The metrological verification procedures and calibration specifications play an important role in the manufacture, calibration and use of textile instruments. The lack of verification procedures, calibration specifications, or even imperfections will not only cause confusion in the measurement value, but also cause confusion in the textile instrument market. For example, due to the imperfect requirements of dynamic characteristics and incomplete verification methods in the metrological verification procedures of electronic single-yarn strength machines, some electronic single-yarn strength machines are qualified according to the metrological verification procedures. When actually testing the yarn breaking strength, low speed and high speed are used. The breaking strength of stretched yarns varies greatly, and the breaking strength of high-speed stretching and lower-speed stretching yarns is tens of percentage points lower. It is obvious that the dynamic characteristics are too poor; therefore, it is necessary to strengthen the formulation and revision of metrological verification procedures and calibration specifications. . The metrological verification procedures and calibration specifications of textile instruments are statutory documents that regulate the metrological performance of textile instruments. The Metrology Law stipulates that these documents must be abided by in our country. This is also true for foreign textile instruments. In a sense, they also serve as technical barriers. It is beneficial to protect domestic textile instruments. The preparation and revision of metrological verification procedures and calibration specifications is a highly statutory work that requires the guidance and support of relevant government departments. We hope that the China Textile Industry Association, the Textile Instrument Professional Committee of China Textile Machinery Industry Association, and the newly established Instrument Metrology Technical Committee can fill the gap in the management of textile instrument manufacturing after the revocation of the Ministry of Textile Industry under the market economy. Coordinate the relationship with the National Development and Reform Commission, the National Quality and Technical Supervision, Inspection and Quarantine Bureau, the National Fiber Inspection Bureau, etc., strive to provide support in basic research, policies and regulations, national scientific research projects, etc., and guide the National Textile Metrology Station and the majority of metrology workers to speed up measurement The preparation and revision of verification procedures and calibration specifications actively guide the healthy development of the textile instrument manufacturing industry.

What Are the ISTA Standard Tests and ISTA Testing Equipment?
ISTA (International Safe Transit Association) standard tests are globally recognized transportation packaging test procedures designed to evaluate the safety and reliability of products and their packaging throughout the logistics chain. By simulating real-world transportation conditions such as drops, vibration, impact, stacking, and compression, ISTA testing helps identify potential packaging weaknesses before products enter large-scale distribution. ISTA testing equipment—including drop testers, vibration testers, incline impact machines, and compression testers—plays a critical role in accurately reproducing these conditions under laboratory settings. Proper selection and use of ISTA-compliant equipment enable manufacturers to reduce transportation damage, lower return costs, enhance packaging design, and improve customer confidence in product quality and logistics safety.
