Types of Textile Testing Instruments1
There are many types of textile testing instruments. At present, according to the classification methods commonly used in the market, the types of textile testing instruments can be divided into: mechanical property testing instruments, appearance quality testing instruments, fabric style testing instruments, physical property testing instruments, process property testing instruments, Fabric testing equipment, printing and dyeing fastness textile equipment, general textile testing equipment, textile simulation environment testing equipment, textile testing consumables, etc. 1. Mechanical testing instruments mainly include: tensile properties testing instruments and abrasion resistance testing instruments. Tensile property testing instruments mainly include: constant velocity elongation type, equal loading type, and constant velocity traction type. The test instruments for wear resistance include flat grinding (rotary, inflatable, reciprocating plane, reciprocating drum), curved grinding, edge-folding and accelerated grinding. 2. Appearance quality testing instruments mainly include dyeing fastness tester for printed and dyed fabrics, which are used to test the degree of fading of printed and dyed fabrics after exposure to sunlight, friction, etc. Most of them are designed to imitate the actual use of printed and dyed fabrics, such as light fastness tester, soaping fastness tester, rubbing fastness tester, sublimation fastness tester, etc. The color fastness test method varies with the type of instrument. 3. Fabric style testing instruments mainly include: fabric wrinkle recovery angle tester and fabric surface uniformity tester. 4. The physical property testing instruments mainly include: air permeability tester, moisture permeability tester, thermal insulation tester, and fiber specific resistance tester. 5. The test instruments for process properties mainly include: fiber length meter, fiber fineness meter, electrostatic meter, friction coefficient tester, crimp tester, yarn hairiness tester, yarn twist tester, and moisture regain tester. 6. Fabric fabric testing instruments mainly include: fabric tensile tester, zipper fatigue tester, fabric pilling tester, ICI pilling tester, button tension tester, zipper reciprocating fatigue tester, rolling box type pilling tester, Wetness Tester, Fabric Flat Grinder, Fabric Thickness Tester, Fabric Density Mirror, Fabric Tear Tester, Fabric Weight Tester, Button Button Machine, Cloth Weight Balance, Sample Cutter, Cutting Knife, Electronic Yarn Count number detection system. 7. Printing and dyeing fastness textile instruments mainly include: perspiration color fastness tester, rubbing color fastness tester, dyeing fastness rubbing tester, horizontal burning tester, vertical burning tester, 45 degree burning tester, washable fastness tester Color fastness tester, shrinkage tester. Others: Textile testing instruments also include: general textile testing instruments, textile simulated environment testing instruments, textile testing consumables, etc. Article source: (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd.

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.
