Summary of Textile Basic Knowledge
The textile industry is a basic industry for the national economy and people's livelihood. There are many people engaged in the production, processing, and other fields of the textile industry. People's daily life about textiles is basically inseparable from their contributions. At present, there are a lot of people in the textile industry research field all over the world. Whether you are a professional or a non-professional, you basically have a certain understanding of the textile industry and textiles. Give everyone a brief exchange of concepts. 1. Commonly used textile calculation formulas are divided into two types: fixed-length calculation formula and fixed-weight calculation formula 1. Fixed-length calculation formula: (1), denier (D): Du003dg/L*9000 where g is The weight of the silk thread (grams), L is the length of the silk thread (meters) (2), tex (number) [tex(H)]: texu003dg/L*1000 where g is the weight of the yarn (or silk) (G), L is the length of the yarn (or silk) (m) (3), dtex (dtex): dtexu003dg/L*9000 where g is the weight of the silk thread (g), L is the length of the silk thread (M) 2. Calculation formula of fixed weight system: (1), metric count (N): Nu003dL/G where G is the weight (g) of the yarn (or silk), and L is the length of the yarn (or silk) (M) (2), British count (S): Su003dL/(G*840) where G is the weight of the silk thread (lbs), L is the length of the silk thread (yards) 2. The conversion formula for textile unit selection: ( 1) The conversion formula of metric count (N) and denier (D): Du003d9000/N(2), the conversion formula of English count (S) and denier (D): Du003d5315/ S(3), dtex and tex conversion formula: 1texu003d10dtex(4), tex and denier (D) conversion formula: texu003dD /9(5), tex (tex) and inch count (S) conversion formula: texu003dK/SK value: pure cotton yarn Ku003d583.1 purified fiber Ku003d590.5 polyester cotton yarn Ku003d587.6 cotton viscose yarn ( 75:25) Ku003d584.8 dimensional cotton yarn (50:50) Ku003d587.0 (6), tex (tex) and metric number (N) conversion formula: texu003d1000/N(7), detex (dtex) and denier (D) conversion formula: dtexu003d10D/9(8), decitex (dtex) and imperial count (S) conversion formula: dtexu003d10K/SK value: pure cotton Yarn Ku003d583.1 Purified fiber Ku003d590.5 Polyester cotton yarn Ku003d587.6 Cotton viscose yarn (75:25) Ku003d584.8 Three-dimensional cotton yarn (50:50) Ku003d587.0(9), dtex and metric count (N) conversion formula: dtexu003d10000/N(10), the conversion formula of metric centimeters (cm) and imperial inches (inch): 1inchu003d2.54cm(11), metric meters (M) and imperial yards (yd) Conversion formula: 1 yard u003d 0.9144 meters (12), the conversion formula of satin square meter weight (g/m2) and millimetres (m/m): 1m/mu003d4.3056g/m2 (13), the actual satin The conversion formula of weight and pound weight: pound weight (lb) u003d silk weight per meter (g/m) * 0.9144 (m/yd) * 50 (yd) / 453.6 (g/yd) 3. Testing method: 1. Hand feeling Visual inspection method: This method is suitable for loose fibers State-of-the-art textile materials. (1) Cotton fiber is shorter and thinner than ramie fiber and other hemp fiber and wool fiber, often with various impurities and defects. (2) The hemp fiber feels rough and hard. (3) The wool fiber is curly and elastic. (4) Silk is long and slender, with special luster. (5) Among chemical fibers, only viscose fiber has a large difference in strength between dry and wet states. (6) Spandex yarn has very large elasticity, and its length can be stretched to more than five times at room temperature.

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.
The Heat Contact Machine GT-C101 is a specialized testing instrument designed for evaluating the heat resistance and thermal protective performance of gloves, protective clothing, and other heat-resistant materials used in high-temperature environments. In industries such as smelting, casting, welding, and glass manufacturing, workers are frequently exposed to intense heat, making accurate testing of contact heat resistance essential for ensuring safety and compliance.
GT-C101 simulates real working conditions by measuring heat transfer delay and thermal transmission under instant contact with high-temperature surfaces. Fully compliant with EN 407, EN 702, and ISO 12127-1 standards, this machine provides precise, repeatable data for manufacturers, laboratories, and research institutions. With high-temperature capability up to 500°C, advanced calorimetry, digital monitoring, and adjustable contact speed, the Heat Contact Machine GT-C101 is an indispensable tool for developing and certifying next-generation PPE and heat-insulation materials.
