What is Automatic Fabric Drape Tester GT-C22
In the textile industry, the drape characteristics of fabrics are crucial to the appearance and comfort of products. To address the issues of high measurement error and cumbersome operation associated with traditional methods, we have introduced the fully automated fabric drape tester. This article will provide an in-depth overview of the application scenarios, working principles, and outstanding features of the fabric drape tester, helping you to fully understand this testing equipment.
Product Applications
The Automatic Fabric Drape Tester GT-C22 is primarily used to test the dynamic and static drape properties of various fabrics, including drape coefficient, lively rate, corrugated surface, and aesthetic coefficient. These parameters are essential for evaluating the performance of fabrics in actual wear. The drape tester is not only suitable for the research and development of traditional textiles but also widely used in the testing of new functional textiles, such as smart textiles, sportswear, and high-performance outdoor gear.
Working Principle
The working principle of the automatic fabric drape tester is based on the deformation characteristics of fabric under the influence of gravity. Specifically, at the start of the test, a circular fabric sample is horizontally fixed between two smaller discs. As the lower supporting disc is removed, the fabric sample naturally drapes under gravity, forming folds. At this point, the drape tester captures the projected outline of the fabric using a digital camera and transmits it to a computer for analysis. Special software automatically calculates the ratio between the projected area and the original fabric area to determine the drape coefficient.
Product Features
Thefabric drape tester integrates multiple advanced technologies to ensure high precision and reliability of test results. Here are its main features:
1. Fully Automated Control: The drape tester employs microcomputer control, with the entire testing process completed automatically by the computer. Data collection, processing, and analysis require no manual intervention, ensuring consistency and accuracy of test results.
2. High-Resolution Image Capture: The equipment is equipped with a high-resolution Sony camera, capable of clearly capturing the fabric's projected outline. This simplifies the operation and significantly enhances test precision.
3. Multi-Standard Compatibility: The automatic fabric drape tester complies with British Standards (BS) and other international standards, meeting the needs of the global market.
4. Data Processing and Output: Test results can be automatically generated into various statistical analysis charts via the software, and can be saved and exported. This provides great convenience for researchers conducting in-depth analysis and report writing.
5. Dynamic Testing: The fabric drape tester can perform not only static tests but also simulate the dynamic behavior of fabrics under actual wearing conditions. This dynamic testing capability allows researchers to more comprehensively evaluate the overall performance of fabrics.
6. Easy Operation: The design of the machine fully considers the user experience, with a simple and clear interface and intuitive operation process, enabling even first-time users to quickly master its use.
