Application:

The fabric touch tester simultaneously measures the fabric thickness, compression, bending, roughness, friction, as well as the thermal properties of the fabrics, thus objectively measuring the subjective properties of the fabric touch. The comprehensive, sophisticated design of the FTT allows it to measure all the mechanical and surface properties of fabrics in one simple test, and these are smoothness, softness, warmth, the overall feeling of hand touch.

  • Electricity: 115/230 V, single phase, 60/50 Hz, 2.5 A
  • Specimen dimensions: ˝L˝ form
  • Max. specimen thickness: 5 mm
  • Pressure: 70 g/cm2
  • Test duration: 10 min
  • FTT software for data analysis
