What is the Martindale abrasion and pilling test and how important of it?

Do you sometimes feel troubled by buying some textile products such as worn

and pilled clothes and pants? I believe this kind of thing is very common in our 

daily life. At this time, manufacturers need to strictly control their #quality, take 

the Martindale abrasion and pilling test for their own products, Martindale Abrasion 

and Pilling Tester can check the abrasion and pilling ability of various textile products,

which can reduce the flow of unqualified textile products into the market.

SL-F04 Martindale Abrasion and Pilling Tester

Product Introduction
This tester can check the abrasion and pilling capability for various textile products.
1. Samples are rubbed against known abradant at low pressures, its degree of abrasion 

and pilling can be compared with standard parameter evaluation.
2. The instruments used movable fastening components of the sample, you can always 

check out a sample of friction without affecting the other specimen
3. Not only does the sample quickly, but independent testing also guarantees friction over 

the accuracy of measurement BSEN ISO12947-1: 1999 recognized fastening methods. 

4. The tester is equipped with an electronic preset batch counter, timer, and pooled 

sample clips and load device (compatible with international testing standards) 

Provides 4, 6, head of the model.

Principle
Under the specified pressure, the circular specimen is rubbed with the same fabric or 

wool fabric abrasive fabric for a certain number of times with the Lissajous pattern 

trajectory, and the wear resistance and the pilling performance of the specimen 

are examined.

According to the standard

This tester is manufactured according to ISO 12947-1~3, ISO 12945-2, GB/T 21196.1~4, 

ASTM D4966, and other standards.
