Standard: ISO 5077/6330 M&S P1/P1A/P3A /P12/P91/P99/P99A/P134 BS EN 25077/26330 IWSTM 31 IEC 456 NEXT TM 7/7A/7B/12 Application areas: European standard Wascator FOM 71CLS LAB shrinkage tester is a European standard Shrinkage test machine has long been a reference for textile laboratory standards. It is used to test the shrinkage and appearance of fabrics after washing, in full compliance with the requirements of European standards and retailer's testing requirements. Usage and precautions: Before use: Sort the fabric, check whether the inner tank is empty, add fabric, close the machine door, check the emergency stop button, and keep it in an unpressed state. 1. Start the washing program There are three ways to start the program: input the known program number and press the Select key; when you are not sure which program is available, you can select an existing program from the program library. The specific description of the program is in the program list. Display; select an existing control program from the memory card. 2. If you need to change the parameters, press the up and down keys to the parameter you want to modify, press the select key, use the number keys to input new parameters, and press the select key. 3. Fast forward: used to end a program in advance. Select rapid advance, press the select key, select end of program, press the select key, when“door open”When displayed on the screen, the door can be opened. 4. During the running of the program, you can check the real-time load and water level by selecting on the display, and you can also use functions such as pause, manual function selection, selection of a new washing program, text input, temperature unit change, and automatic restart. 5. Data statistics The data statistics function can see the information: total running time, running time of this operation, the latest 5 error codes, and the number of used programs. Common problems and solutions: Common problem solutions After the prompt of no water and no water appears, reset the setting, the washing machine will automatically retry the door opening prompt, reset the setting, and the machine will automatically retry the temperature is too low / high temperature is lower / Above the allowable minimum/maximum value, check the overload of the temperature sensor. Note that the machine load is not heated. Check it in the setting item.”min. temperature increase”and”max. heating time”Option, restart the washing machine, adjust the level, check the level of the washing machine, do level calibration, the communication is interrupted, the communication between the program module and the system is interrupted, press the start button to restart the washing machine motor overheating, check whether it is overloaded, whether the air vent is blocked, whether the ambient temperature is too high, close Machine 30s, reboot Article Source: (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd.

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.
