Where is the gap between domestic textile testing instruments and imported instruments
In recent years, my country's domestic textile testing instruments have made significant progress in both quantity and quality. However, the evaluation of the market is still: the quality of domestic instruments is unreliable and the performance is unstable, and the experiments and research of high-end high-tech are still imported in large quantities. The Marketing Department believes that the gap between domestic production and imports is mainly manifested in the following three aspects: 1. The gap between R&D concepts and models. Foreign counterparts regard the user opinions and improvement suggestions of the previous generation products as treasures, and analyze and study these information one by one, and put forward improvement plans one by one in combination with the latest related technologies, and then develop prototypes after optimization and send them to influential people in the industry free of charge. The user enterprise conducts the trial, and also signs the trial technology non-disclosure agreement with the user to achieve a win-win situation for the R&D side and the user side. According to the results of the field trial, the users put forward comprehensive suggestions for modification from a technical point of view, and the modified opinions are also reported to the new product promotion agency of the association where the enterprise is located, and finally put it on the market and promote its application. This kind of research and development model can often be an instant hit. A new domestic R&D project is indeed market-oriented and aimed at user needs, but the result is always a beat. Industry research and development lacks top-level guidance and design from the state, which leads to lack of guidance in research and development direction, dispersion of financial and human resources, and failure to form synergy. 2. The gap in R&D investment of test equipment products. Foreign innovation is an overall innovation system, which is systematic from R&D customer demand to R&D to later promotion. It requires a lot of investment in R&D talents and R&D innovation. Some domestic enterprises are unwilling to invest capital and innovate. 3. The gap between the diffusion of R&D achievements and the operation mode of promotion and application. The win-win and application model of foreign R&D parties and users inspires us: the diffusion and popularization of R&D results are the forerunners of new test products to the market, and an important means of converting products into commodities. Because products are not equal to commodities, products can only become commodities when they are sold and accepted by people. Only useful innovation is valuable, and the results of research and development must be well combined with market demand. Article source: (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd.
If you have a tensile tester manufacturers business, be sure to choose a from GESTER International Co.,Limited. After all, you need quality equipment in order to provide your customers with quality service.
GESTER International Co.,Limited also maintains a friendly, fair, and creative work environment, which respects diversity, new ideas, and hard work.
GESTER International Co.,Limited are providing this to you at very low cost. Our claims are only based on different feed-backs received from various clients and not based on self-judgment.
GESTER International Co.,Limited might focus its marketing efforts by highlighting its end product—improved technology and increased profits—not its producing methods.
But we do think that reckoning with supply chains of textile testing equipment is a really important step. Even super simple switches in material, or sourcing, or shipping, or worker benefits seems like good place to start.
Ball Burst Method (ASTM D3787): Steel ball penetration for textiles/films using testers like GT-C02-2.
Hydraulic Method (ISO 13938.1): Fluid pressure on rubber diaphragm for industrial fabrics via GT-C12A.
Pneumatic Method (ISO 13938.2): Compressed air for breathable materials tested with GT-C12B.
Results are influenced by raw materials, yarn properties,
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.
