Digital Elmendorf Tearing Tester For Various Materials

       A tear is generally uneven and, and usually unplanned. An exception is a tear along a perforated line, such as those found on a roll of toilet paper or paper towels, which has been previously partially cut, so the effort of tearing will most likely produce a straight line.


The speed at which a tear resistance test is conducted can affect the test significantly. Tear transmission resistance is common for acceptance testing with materials such as paper and rubber. Tear resistance in textiles involves the load required to spread a single "rip-tongue" type of tear or the type of tear where the material is initially cut.

Materials vary in their vulnerability to tearing. Some materials may be quite resistant to tearing when they are in their full form, but when a small cut or tear is made, the material becomes compromised, and the effort needed to continue tearing along that line becomes less.


Tearing Resistance Tester tests the tear force required to tear samples of paper, film, board and other sheet materials. The equipment is designed to directly read the gF(Tear Force) per one piece. The Tearing Resistance Test instrument scale is calibrated to indicate the average force exerted when a certain number of piles are torn together.

The Digital Elmendorf Tearing Tester is using Elmendorf method to determine the tear force of textile fabrics which requires to propagate a single-rip tear of defined length from a cut in a fabric when a sudden force is applied. Test range is 200-32000CN, while the impact force is corresponding to the specific pendulum. They determine ballistic tearing strength by propagating a single-rip tongue-type tear starting from a cut in a sample. The design is much user-friendly with wide range to meet different test and standards.

Determination of air permeability of a fabric-air permeability tester

Fabric air permeability is a measure to what extent it gives air passing through the fabric. Air permeability, a given area in the vertical direction of the air flow rate, a given time period, is measured by the fabric test area inside the pressure difference of the fabric. Basically, it depends on weight, thickness and porosity of fabric. The porosity of fabric is the demonstration of the air gap as a percentage within fabric. It has been important for especially the tent fabric, parachute fabric, raincoat fabric and garment, the fabric used in air bags, industrial filters and sail cloth. Moreover, when thermal properties of clothing and body interaction are taken into consideration, there has been the effect of air permeability. there is an instrument which is designed to test the air permeability of fabric on the market .it is air permeability tester . Air permeability is an important feature of fabrics (Sundaramoorthy et al., 2011) and is one of the main factors affecting the t...

How To Process The Elmendorf Tear Strength Test

The Elmendorf tear tester has been developed specially for the paper industry and is outstanding for simplicity of operation and high measurement accuracy. The exchangeable pendulum is equipped with a pneumatic sample clamp. The initiation and return of the pendulum, as well as sample cutting is completely automatic. The device is operated via an integrated touch screen, where the test method can be selected, specific settings can be adjusted, and, after the measurement, results and statistics can be  displayed.Each pendulum is supplied with the appropriate control weight so that, with the help of the service program, it can easily be checked for functionality and balance. The Elmendorf tear test Procedure:     Cotton fabric was taken.     Warp and weft direction of the fabric was identified.     Two strips were cut from the fabric in both directions having dimensions of 100 x 63.5 mm.     The sample was then fixed in the jaws of the ...

3 main functional values of the Burning Manikin System

3 main functional values of the Burning Manikin System 1) Research on the heat transfer mechanism of individual soldier's flame retardant equipment By simulating the battlefield fire conditions of different intensities, the changes of human skin surface heat flow and skin temperature by burning dummies, a good human body-clothing-fire environment conditions are created, and the individual soldiers are flame retardant The study of equipment heat transfer mechanism provides an important research method. 2) Research and screening of flame retardant fabrics for individual soldier equipment Quantitatively test the flame retardant properties of different individual soldier equipment fabrics through the burning dummy system, guide the research on flame retardant fabrics, and screen out flame retardant fabrics with excellent performance. 3) Structure and style design of individual soldier's flame retardant protective equipment The structure and style of individual soldier's flame r...
