Fabric Martindale Abrasion Test Operation Method

Fabric Martindale Abrasion Test Operation Method

Martindale Abrasion Tester can be used to test the abrasion resistance and pilling performance of fabrics. Under a certain pressure, the sample and the abrasive are subjected to continuous reversing friction, and the degree of wear and pilling is evaluated by comparing with the standard parameters. Standard Group (Hong Kong) Co., Ltd. is a manufacturer, welcome customers in need to inquire. In addition, our research and development engineer said that there are three main methods for testing the abrasion resistance of fabrics with Martindale Abrasion Tester: mass loss measurement method, appearance quality change method and sample damage measurement method.


Martindale Abrasion Tester is used in textile, footwear, clothing and other industries to test the wear resistance and pilling performance of knitted fabrics, woolen fabrics, artificial leather and synthetic leather under pressure.

The steps and precautions for using the Martindale Abrasion Tester are as follows:


experiment procedure:


1. The sample is parked in the laboratory environment for more than 8 hours;


2. Cut a sample from the flat part of the sample. If it is an insole, it should be cut to the transfer part;


3. Remove the load and load shaft from the testing machine;


4. Remove the top plate and test fixture;


5. The device of the sample: loosen the fixing ring on the test fixture, take down the sample pressing piece, put the sample into the test fixture base, place a piece of sample gasket between the sample and the test fixture base, and then Place the sample pressing piece on the sample gasket and fix it with a fixing ring;

6. The device of wool felt and friction cloth: loosen the fixing screw to fix the fixing ring, put the wool felt on the base and spread the friction cloth, press a 2.5KG pressure plate in the middle of the friction cloth, put back the fixing ring and Tighten the set screw;


7. Reinstall the top plate, and pass the load shaft (12KPA) through the round hole of the top plate;


8. Place the test fixture with the sample facing down on the base fixture, adjust the circular groove of the test fixture to align with the load shaft, so that the load shaft is inserted into the circular groove of the test fixture;


9. Set the number of times according to the standard, start the switch, start the test, and stop automatically after reaching the set number of times.
